Photo By Harry Lichtman Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Colors of Autumn” by Harry Lichtman. Location: Rangeley, Maine. “Another angle on another evening in the Rangeley Lakes Region of Maine,” says Lichtman. “While apps and Google Earth are great to help find shooting locations, sometimes just exploring an area by kayak makes for some fine discoveries. For this composition, I wanted to balance the water areas around the stand of Northern White Cedar and make use of the still water reflections created by the natural rock jetties. Not a bad place to have dinner and watch the changing light.” Want to get your images in the running for a Photo of the Day feature? Photo of the Day is chosen...

The post dPS Weekly Photo Challenge – Weathered appeared first on Digital Photography School. It was authored by Sime. I had some great weathered timber for this until last week, when I sanded it and painted it… That’s a fail, Simon! But then I remembered the old pocket knife I found in the dirt and cleaned up a little, it has some great weathering! A smattering of rust, some scratches and some pitting in the blade, too. “Weathered” – worn by long exposure to the atmosphere; weather-beaten. Old timber, steel, Toys are a good one, A rusted roof… The list, as ever, goes on for a while! You can use a single image or tell a photo-story, the only requirement is...
