Photo of the Day

The Wave

Only twenty people a day obtain permits to hike The Wave in northern Arizona. A photo such as this requires not just luck with the weather and the light, but also in getting chosen for one of the lottery permits. This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
