The thunderous noise from the abundant water at Lower Yosemite Falls was music to my ears as I watched the mist weaving its way through the forest. I was mesmerized by this scene. Taken on 4/16/16.
Vue exceptionnelle sur le Sentinel Dome. Ces immenses blocs de granite sont impressionnants.
Road trip au Yosemite National Park, sublime bol d'air !
Tenaya Lake in Yosemite National Park. Located high above the Yosemite valley, the glacial lake is surrounded by smooth granite monoliths and is amazingly beautiful.

I think this is an obligatory shot if one goes to Yosemite.
Although the rainbow colors in the waterfall were wonderful.
Experiencing the snow is almost ethereal.

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.
A easy early morning hike in Yosemite valley leads to Mirror Lake, a truly spectacular trail for a relaxing hike. Arrive early as this location does become crowded later in the morning.
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 National Valley Park is in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains. It’s famed for its giant, ancient sequoia trees, and for Tunnel View, the iconic vista of towering Bridalveil Fall and the granite cliffs of El Capitan and Half Dome. 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… The light shifted and clouds changed so quickly that the view was always different.

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.
