Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Sunset Dream” by Bill Sisson. Location: Huangshan Mountains, China.

“The Huangshan Mountains in China are famous for steep granite peaks clothed in clouds,” says Bill Sisson. “Just as the last rays of the setting sun touched these peaks, they disappeared and reappeared as the clouds rose and fell around them, almost like mountains in a sunset dream.”

Photo of the Day is chosen from various OP galleries, including Assignments, Galleries and the OP Contests. Assignments have weekly winners that are featured on the OP website homepage, Facebook and Twitter. To get your photos in the running, all you have to do is submit them.
