Back from Yosemite


Katrina and I just returned from a brief trip to Yosemite. The valley is currently in an inbetween phase. The snow in the valley is almost melted, but the vegetation underneath has not yet had time to become green, or for flowers to bloom. Since the waterfalls were flowing and the moon was nearly full, we were hoping to photograph a "moonbow." However, each night the clouds rolled in and obscured the moon. This shot is a "daybow" in Upper Yosemite Falls, taken with a 400mm lens on my Canon 5D. I took other similar shots during our visit, but this was my favorite because the rainbow is appearing at the base of the falls and is surrounding the trees.
