Thanks DCist readers, we now have over 11,000 photos tagged for us on Flickr. Browse through them and you’ll find that this city is home to some seriously talented photographers. We encourage everyone to submit their work; sometimes the nicest part of our job is scrolling through all your pretty pictures to select images for our posts.

Our photo of the day is brought to you by Flickr user Peter F. Martin. After a swim through the humidity across the street to get lunch a few minutes ago, I can only imagine that this gorgeous tiger at the National Zoo is much happier wading through a nice cool pool. The photo’s EXIF data is here.
