The Top 75 Pictures of the Day for 2013



At the end of every quarter the Sifter highlights the top 25 Pictures of the Day, culminating in an epic Top 100 at the end of the year.

It's hard to believe we're already in the last quarter of 2013. Below you will find the third installment of this quarterly compilation. All credit goes to the individual photographers and their inspiring visions of our beautiful planet.
