  • Granite cliffs, El Capitan, Half Dome and bridal veil falls at sunset. The last rays on half dome. This wasn't a spectacular day for sunset. Not much action in the sky. Still this sight is always pleasing to eyes.

  • May 26th- The granite tower and Yosemite falls come alive as near full moon rises from behind. It was a sight to be seen. The fall was gleaming in moonlight. I took this picture at midnight. Also note the star trails in the sky.This is the time of the year when Yosemite valley is at its best. Flowers, meadows and gushing waterfalls !! It was an experience of life time! Can't describe the feeling in a few words.

  • This was taken before moonrise. Was exposed for longer duration. The sky has less deep color, everything uniformly illuminated vs the picture in which yosemite fall stands out as moon lights it up.

  • May 11 - Yosemite falls from swinging bridge. It's spring here. It gets challenging because the bridge shakes and this location is busy with people.

  • May 12 - El Capitan ,a vertical granite monolith at Yosemite NP. I set my tripod on rocks at the shore, partially submerged in the water . This allowed me to capture the merced river flow that complemented the cloud patterns and the granite monolith very well. You can see ribbon falls only during this time of the year. In a few weeks, it will dry up.
