A long standing tradition but one I don't agree with in a National Park dedicated to preserving wild lands. Enough of my rant. Absolutely wonderful shot. Well worth the wait I think.


It is beautiful, but I agree. Not what a National Park is all about!

Awesome! I am envious! We will be there in April, but with no 'firefall'.

Second trip to Yosemite recently. Specifically to shoot the famous Firefall event, which happens 2n and 3rd week every February. With only 50% snowfall and weather issues, I was feeling it was unlikely to happen. I got in position 6 hours early to make sure I had a spot. It was scary with on and off cloud cover most the day. But I hung in there to the end with hundreds of not well over a thousand photographers. The sky opened as the sun was settimg at just the right angle to create the glow in the falls and was able to use all 12 min of shooting time.

Hello and I think you got a very good shot. I was there for the fire fall in 1963 but then they stopped it for several years. I don't know when they started it again but it's a great thing to be able to see.

Thank you guys, this was my third attempt. Once last year two this year. One photographer near me was on his 8th trip. In 1963, I think they were using real fire. Is that right David. It's an interesting story.
