Joanne Bradley, about 1 month ago

This angle is wonderful since it takes us from the riverbed up to the mountaintops. But more particularly I am captivated by the emerald green of the water. Magnificent!

Thanks so much Joanne. Sometimes I wish I could scoop up the water, and in my hands it would be this beautiful color. Wouldn’t that be something :)

John Radosevich, about 1 month ago

Absolutely fantastic image Maria, fab capture, colour and view

Mar Silva in reply to John Radosevich’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thanks so much John! My love, Yosemite is 7 hours away. I only get to go there once every 4 months. 2 of those months for at least 10 days in her back country. 2 of those months is winter. Still the winter holds it’s own beauty. This year because of finding a new job I was deprived of one 10 day out…. And I can’t wait until September to get back there. Until the day I can move as close as I can there!
