Photo of the Day

September 30, 2017

Sunrise Glow

While visiting family in Victoria, Australia, Your Shot photographer Garry Everett went on an early morning photography excursion, only to find Lake Mulwala covered in fog. Then: "The conditions changed dramatically as the sun broke through and interacted with the fog and clouds to create this wonderful soft light effect," he remembers. "If you look hard you will also notice a few black swans in the image." This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
