Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Sierra Twilight” by Harry Lichtman. Location: Dusy Basin, Kings Canyon National Park, California.

“The post-sunset glow after a thunderstorm turned the granite landscape of Kings Canyon National Park pink pastels,” explains Lichtman. “I positioned myself near an alpine tarn to reflect the colors around me.”

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.
