Merced River, Yosemite, Winter Light

The Merced River reflects the warm light on El Capitan and Bridalveil Fall in Yosemite Valley during winter.

We were in Yosemite Valley in late December, hoping for snow, and got just enough to dust the valley floor. The light on El Capitan and the granite cliffs around Bridalveil Fall was incredible that afternoon.
