Road trip au Yosemite National Park, sublime bol d'air !
Without a doubt, Yosemite in the winder is like a magical land. This photo almost looks black n white but after a snow storm in a still gray day, this was the color…

Olmsted Point, Yosemite National Park, CA
It's a pleasant surprise to see this juvneile female Williamson's Sapsucker. Although she is not as colorful or flashy as her adult male counterpart, she is a lifer for me!
A misty, moody morning at Yosemite Valley, October 2015.
I've posted a similar shot before but I wanted to post process a more "Fantasy" version to bring out the emotions the location gave me.
So this is a little hyper-realistic, more than my usual shots.
Vernal Fall is a 317-foot (96.6 m) waterfall on the Merced River just downstream of Nevada Fall in Yosemite National Park.
From Glacier Point (see panorama picture in the middle - www.flickr.com/photos/142421249@N02/48687951368/in/datepo...) you can see the Vernal Fall and the Nevada Fall. A wonderful tour for hiking.
Yosemite Valley is a glacial valley in Yosemite National Park in the western Sierra Nevada mountains of Central California. It covers an area of 3,081 km2, surrounded by high granite summits such as Half Dome and El Capitan, and densely forested with pines. The valley is drained by the Merced River, and a multitude of streams and waterfalls flow into it. It is famous for its landscapes and nature: impressive granite cliffs, waterfalls, rivers with clear water, groves of redwoods and rich biological diversity (almost 95 % of the park is considered a wildlife area). In 1984, the park received the status of "World Heritage" under the auspices of UNESCO.
After taking sunrise photo at Mono Lake, headed to Yosemite Valley. If driving along Highway 120, it would take a bit more than one hour from Lee Vining to Yosemite Valley, but Highway 120 was closed (opened on the end of May), had to detour along the mountain’s cliffs: Highway 395-108-120, it took more than 6 hours… Arrived in the afternoon, sunshine all day, questioned why 120 was still closed on that part. While when arriving to Yosemite Valley, attracted by the beautiful scenery, all of sudden, snowing with hails… Got into the car and wait for an hour, snow stopped. I could understand why 120 was closed, so dangerous driving along the cliffs in this snowing conditions. I heard some people missing while visiting Yosemite Valley.
Finally hitting the Tunnel View while driving along the Valley. There is a Vista point that allows you to appreciate the whole valley. Stayed in this place over 2 hours waiting for sunset, other tourists came, took photos, and left… so cold even with my Canada Goose Jacket on, had to get into the car to warm myself couple of times, left the tripod on the spot… Here was sunset with the crazy clouds covered whole Yosemite Valley! I took lots of photos in this place, only this one having crazy clouds among all these photos, I guess this shape of clouds lasted just few minutes.

Yosemite Falls is the highest waterfall in Yosemite National Park, dropping a total of 2,425 feet from the top of the upper fall to the base of the lower fall. The upper fall pictured here is a 1,430-foot (440 m) plunge and comprises over half the total drop. You might notice there are stars in the sky. So in the Springtime, when the falls are full, on the night of a full moon, the face of the falls is moonlit and visitors who throng to the park for this phenom are treated to a "moonbow". Doesn't happen right away - the moon has to rise high enough to shine deep down into the Valley. So ... wait for it, wait for it... One other treat I absolutely love about the Yosemite falls is how the wind can catch them and literally move them around. You might be able to imagine that here as the fall appears to bulge out midway down. From Cooks Meadow.
As a Southern California native, I might add I didn't discover Yosemite till later in life (I was 30). I have enjoyed it, and all its seasons, for several decades since. In fact, my rolling blind's plate is an eco-Yose plate.

***Yosemite Firefall, Horsetail Fall
The natural Firefall is one of Yosemite National Park’s most amazing spectacles. Around the second week of February, the setting sun hits Horsetail Fall, which flows over the eastern edge of El Capitan at just the right angle to illuminate the upper reaches of the waterfall. And when conditions are perfect, Horsetail Fall glows orange and red at sunset.
