I think only a few times in life ones genius melds with skill to produce an image such as this. It's a masterpiece I would love to display in my home.....

Did I mention this photo also brings one quite a bit closer to tossing the old Brownie straight into the trash......... Very humbling!

What month was this taken in Yosemite? Where in the valley was this shot from? I grew up going to Yosemite several times a year during all seasons
