Shoreline Trees and Boulder, Morning
Shoreline Trees and Boulder, Morning. Yosemite National Park, California. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Morning light glances across the surface of Tenaya Lake, sprinkled with pollen, and illuminated shoreline trees and boulder, Yosemite National Park, California.
Shortly after the sun cleared the surrounding peaks, the morning light slants across the pollen-covered surface of Tenaya Lake to illuminate two small trees and their larger neighbors, along with a small peninsula and some shoreline boulders. This is an area in which I have photographed in the past, but this time I arrived much earlier in the day and the water level was still considerably higher than later in the season due to the heavy snow melt run-off that had peaked only a week or two earlier.

“Charlie Light”?
Maybe! I can hope! It was a beautiful morning with back-lighting on the trees and the far shore forest still in shadow. :-)
Thanks,
