Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Sierra Sky” by Garry Everett. Location: Big Alkali Lake, California
“Sunset at Big Alkali Lake near Mammoth Lakes, last light illuminating one of the Sierra peaks with very colorful clouds,” explained Everett. “I used a 3-stop graduated ND filter to even out the lighting and to ensure I kept the dramatic cloud color; the shot was made a little more challenging due to the high wind.”
