Photo of the Day (1/10/08)

by Neil Woodburn on Jan 10th 2008 at 10:30AM

We've all seen so many countless photos of the Great Wall that it really doesn't seem all that great any more.

There's something about this shot, however, that really injects that magic back into this ancient Chinese icon. Perhaps it's the light dusting of snow, or the snake like curves at the front of the photograph. I don't know. But what I do know, is that this is perhaps the finest photograph I've seen of the Great Wall.

Congrats go out to petetamproductions for reinvigorating this ancient landmark and giving it back the mystery and allure which has been so sorely missing for many years now.
