Ice Crystals on the Merced River
Yosemite National Park, Dec 2013. This image was taken in Yosemite Valley at a place where the Merced River appears to flow lazily. Its laziness is deceptive. You needn't travel far upstream to appreciate the speed and power of this river as it tumbles over Nevada Falls then Vernal Falls as well as the cascades between and below them. But here, at this spot, on this winters day, the river seemed still and was partially frozen. The ice crystals on the rocks look like a collection of white snowball cakes while the mountains and snow covered trees provide a fairy land of reflections on the glassy river. Its peace and serenity belying the strength of the river like the tenderness of a mother coddling her child. Awards: Honorable Mention, Sacramento County Fair, May 2014

A Deceiving Role
A contrast, the juxtaposition of the ephemeral with the lasting. But, which is really ephemeral? That which appears lasting is eroded, one grain at a time, by that which appears ephemeral, until it is eventually washed away. Meanwhile, that which appears epemeral rushes to sea, evaporates and returns to erode again. Yosemite National Park, APR 2016
Rainbow at Base of Lower Yosemite Falls - Perspective 2, APR 2016
Yosemite Falls thundered strongly from the early spring runoff creating a cool breezy mist. The sun played upon the mist, bathing parts of the landscape in a brilliant golden glow. Yosemite National Park, APR 2016

Rainbow at Base of Lower Yosemite Falls - Perspective 1, APR 2016
The sun cast a brilliant rainbow in the mist at the base of the Lower Yosemite Falls. Though other colors could be seen, the sun highlighted the red-orange spectrum casting a golden glow over the rugged landscape. Yosemite National Park, APR 2016
