Nature's Window
Yosemite Valley's El Capitan basks in the last warm rays of the setting sun as a window opens in clearing storm clouds along the Merced River. Winter is my favorite time in Yosemite Valley with crowds non existent, lodging plentiful and the possibility of fresh snow everpresent. Temperatures, however, remain relatively mild and snow melts quickly; thus, scenes like this where trees are laden with snow do not last long.This photo was taken along the banks of the beautiful Merced River, which runs thru the entire valley. The light on El Cap was fleeting and lasted only a few precious minutes; constantly repositioning my tripod was a bit difficult in the knee deep snow...next time I'll carry my snow shoes!
