Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Grand View” by Erick Castellon. Location: Yosemite National Park, California.

Equipment & Settings: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, 16-35mm F4 @ 20mm, Really Right Stuff TVC-23-BH55 Ballhead, 2-Stop Grad ND; 30 sec., f/13, ISO 100.

“On my way to the Sierras, I made a pit stop in Yosemite,” says Castellon. “For most of the day, it was hazy due to the nearby fires in Mariposa. I stopped at one of my favorite spots and took a few shots with the mid-afternoon sunlight.”

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, Twitter and Instagram. To get your photos in the running, all you have to do is submit them.
