This week's Hot Pic: "Angel of the Morning," by Mike Sullivan, Salem, Oregon
About this photo, Mike says: "I took this photo right after an ice storm in January in Silver Falls State Park, Silverton, Oregon. The water droplets from the falls interacted with the 'Godlight' coming through the trees; it formed the effect you see. If you look closely, you can also see the moss in the foreground dripping with water."
