Horsetail Falls, the famed location for the Yosemite Firefall event each February. This image was taken in anticipation of clearing skies, clearing of the cloud and fog on El Capitan and beautiful golden sunlight striking the flowing water. In addition to the moody ambient conditions we were experiencing so were the emotions of all the photographers gathered this day!
