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.

Photo By Jimmy Day “I took this photograph while staying at the Silver Salmon Creek Lodge in Lake Clark National Park, Alaska,” says Jimmy Day. “The area is well known for its population of Alaskan brown bears and, amazingly, they’re very tolerant of their human visitors.
