A Winters Moonset by Klaus Priebe
Klaus Priebe’s A Winter Moonset was submitted to the Bitter Cold Assignment. “New Years day brought a very chilly morning at 3 below zero as the full moon set during sunrise. Extremely cold but quite magical. Well worth the frozen body parts,” says Priebe.
A new assignment is opened each week and the Winter Scenic Assignment remains open through midnight December 31st.
Photo of the Day is chosen from various OP galleries, including Assignments, Your Favorite Places and the OP Contests. Assignments have weekly winners that are featured on the OP website homepage and several images from the Assignment Gallery are picked to be featured in The Best Of Assignments section in the print magazine. To get your photos in the running, all you have to do is submit them.
