We at Out Traveler are happy to announce a new daily — we hope — feature. Our "Shot of the Day" will highlight a beautiful vacation picture from anyone (but hopefully LGBT). If you have an arresting travel shot, please send it to editor@outtraveler.com with a sentence or two describing the details; where and when it took place, and maybe your favorite memory of that trip. Don't forget your name and where you live.
Today's "Shot of the Day" comes from Shane in Chicago. He writes, "My husband, Chris (left) and I went to Italy in May 2012 for our honeymoon. This photo is from the day we hiked from Monterosso to Vernazza (in background) in Cinque Terre. The morning started off with beautiful weather for the hike. We had breakfast by the sea in Monterosso, walked around the town a bit, then headed for the trail to Vernazza. The hike is generally said to take about 90 minutes, but we were in no hurry and took our time to "stop and smell the roses." This pic is about two hours into the hike. Our beautiful weather had turned to a moderate drizzle not long after we started it. We were soaked and loving every minute of our vacation and each other. One of only three days it rained during our trip, and absolutely one of our favorite days of the two weeks we spent in Italy."
