Blue Ridge Mountain Sunset by Dave Allen
Dave Allen’s photo, Blue Ridge Mountain Sunset is today’s Photo Of The Day. The photo was submitted to the Isolation Assignment which ran earlier in 2012. He describes getting this photograph, “A spectacular sunset over Lake Jocassee in the Blue Ridge Mountains foothills of Upstate South Carolina. I’ve been after this shot for 2 years now and am so happy to finally get a decent shot of this awesome scenic landscape! Hope you enjoy it, comments welcome! ;-)” Allen has been featured as a Photo Of The Day winner a few times this year. He is a frequent participant in the online galleries and you can see all of his submissions here.
