A few weeks ago, inspired, in a way, by the blog Sad Stuff on the Street, we asked you to send in pictures of objects you found on the street that made you smile. The submissions, more often than not, made us smile too.

Unfortunately, we couldn't include every entry, but we want to share a few of our favorites. Have a look at the slideshow above. All the captions are by the photographers.

Now we need your help: Vote on your favorite submission by selecting the photographer's name below through May 5. The winning entry will be announced shortly after, featured on our homepage, and printed in the next issue of GOOD. We’ll also send a GOOD T-shirt and a free subscription (or gift subscription) to the winner.
