Photo Of The Day: December 1, 2008

Pilgrim Monument is a 252-foot granite tower in Provincetown, MA designed by Willard T. Sears which celebrates the Pilgrim’s first landing in America at Provincetown in November of 1620. The tallest all-granite structure in the United States, it always looks impressive. But it takes on another completely different look every year when it is lit the day before Thanksgiving with 3,500 lights, which remain up though January 6. It's wonderful to look at, but even nicer when the lights are set against a dramatic sunset, which happened this past Friday night. For more photos of Cape Cod, visit Paul Scharff Photography.com.
