Photo Of The Day By Erick Castellon
Published June 28, 2018
Today’s Photo Of The Day is “The Valley of the Lilies” by Erick Castellon. Location: Big Sur, California.
“This past Wednesday, 4/18/2018, I headed to the coast,” says Castellon. “I had been watching the webcams in the area and the possibility of good clouds looked great. As I arrived here after a two-hour drive (with traffic; usually just an hour), the clouds had moved but I still got some decent light. This is a two shot focused stacked to get as much in focus as possible.”
Equipment & settings: Canon 5D IV, 16-35mm @21mm, 1/60, ISO 100, RRS-TVC 33 Tripod, BH55 Ballhead.
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.
