Just spent this weekend up in the valley and MAN, the weather was like nothing I've ever experienced for photography, at least. We had the extraordinary good luck to stumble upon a series of shifting weather systems in the Merced River Valley as seen juuuuust after one of the tunnels by Cascade Creek. It was like looking at the cover of a 70's Yes album, something straight out of fairy land. There were only three other photographers besides up there to capture it, and I hope theirs turn out. Never seen anything like it. I must have taken 40 shots in about 15 minutes, but I won't bore you w/them all. The light and mist were shifting so fast it was a little nerve wracking to keep up.
And a black & white that my g/f describes as 'Ansel Adams vacation in Mordor' (I'm still working on this one and may repost it later if it improves)
The foot of El Cap
A bearded guy pointing at a case of Fresca (not in Yosemite)
And finally a gratuitous shot of Fern Spring.
