Yosemite - "El Capitan Moon"-(playing with Trees)"_.jpg

We were shooting the floor of Yosemite, along the Merced River, where the ground fog was putting on a show for us, and we were just about to leave and we looked up and saw this spectacular sight!! The sun was setting and the full moon was just creeping up from behind El Capitan! It was fantastic to be there at that time!!! By the way, that moon was as close to earth then, as it will be all year. That's why it looks so big...
