Nature Photographer is our chosen photographer for this Tuesday's Digital Photography Now Picture of the Day. It's taken me much longer than usual to find the words to do this superb image the justice it deserves. Nature Photographer is based South Africa and it's true that he has a rich diversity of wildlife to call upon, but that shouldn't take anything away from this picture of a most elegant pelican cruising serenely past. I particularly like the lighting, and looks like the picture was taken either in the early morning or late afternoon.

Would you like one of your pictures featured on DPNow's POTD?

We are always on the look out for great pictures posted to the user-galleries here on DPNow. POTDs are selected from the gallery and featured every week day. The gallery facility here is completely free; all you need to do is register as a user on our discussion forum and you will get an automatic 25MB of space, which is good for around 125 pictures uploaded at web resolution, about 200K per picture. At the time of writing we had over 13,000 pictures on the galleries and it's well worth a browse.

Picture of the month

At the end of each month we will select our favourite image of the month and declare a Picture of the Month.

The DPNow Golden Gallery

Our ultimate accolade, the DPNow Golden Gallery, is reserved for what we feel are the very finest images. We invite anyone to submit their pictures for inclusion in the Golden Gallery. Why not have a look at the Golden Gallery submission form? The vast majority are usually rejected, which is why we feel that the ones we do feature are extra special.
