Since photographing Tunnel View was a bust at sun rise, as I suspected, I drove down to the valley to try and find the place on Southside drive to see and photograph Horsetail Falls at sunset. Since I passed it up I stopped by Swinging Bridge to photograph Yosemite Falls in the morning light.
As I was walking the bridge I heard a ‘crash‘. Sounded like camera parts. Sure enough, his Nikon camera had somehow fell to the wooden planks. He said it was fine….lucky for him.

Another WOW! shot. Awesome look at Fern Ledge, too.
There is a fair amount of water in The Falls, eh?
Just a little!
