El Capitan Firefall, Yosemite

El Capitan's Horsetail Fall glows orange in the late afternoon sun.

February in Yosemite Valley, and the angle of the setting sun was perfect to light up Horsetail Fall on El Capitan. The granite cliff face was in shadow, making the 'firefall' effect even more dramatic.
