NN5A2742 CopyI have never seen a waterfall flow like this before.  It was a windy day in Yosemite National Park Valley a year ago when I took this photograph.  The water came down in amazing waves.  The waves reminded me of comets streaking thru the sky.  See the little dot at the top of the picture which is a bird flying by.  Click on the picture to see the bird soaring in the blue sky.  The spray of water almost looked like snow. The faster shutter speed (1/1250 sec) caught the detail of the fine drops falling.

Bridalveil Fall, Yosemite National Park

NN5A3019 CopyThis was an amazing experience watching the water being blown in different directions by a strong wind at Yosemite National Park last year in July.  I could have spent the entire day watching this amazing water fall as the flow of water was different for each passing moment.  At times it seemed to almost stop flowing and then it would come down in a heavy wave.  Bridalveil Fall is 617 ft high.

I photographed this event on a Canon EOS 7D MKII with a 100-400mm zoom lens.  The lens was set at 148 mm and the exposure was f/9, 1/800 sec with the ISO at 320.

NN5A2514 CopyPhotographed later in the afternoon with the wind blowing the water to the left.  The afternoon shadows were approaching the waterfall so I had to shoot fast.  I photographed using my Canon EOS 7D MKII with a 100-400mm lens.  The lens was zoomed to 200mm at f/8 at 1/640 sec with a ISO of 200.  The shot was hand held as I did not have my tripod.  It was nice to see the water flowing and changing constantly with the wind gusts.

Close-up View of Upper Yosemite Fall

NN5A2204 CopyHere is a a close-up view of Upper Yosemite Fall taken with a Canon EOS 7D MKII using a 100-400mm zoom lens.  I took this photograph on the Yosemite Falls trail last week while visiting Yosemite.  I had the lens set at 400mm and took a lot of pictures of the water flowing down the mountain side.  I ended up taking a few hundred pictures between 100mm and 400mm and all the pictures looked different because of the flow of the water and the wind blowing the water.  It was a very fascinating experience seeing the water moving and constantly changing.

Refreshing Upper Yosemite Fall

NN5A2065 CopyWe went to Yosemite last week.  I spent about an hour taking photographs of Yosemite Fall from different spots.  It was wonderful to see the abundance of water coming down compared to last year during a more severe drought.

I was racing against time since it was around 3:30 pm when I started taking photographs.  The sun was moving, and I wanted to take as many pictures before the fall would be in the shade.

I was fascinated watching Upper Yosemite Fall as the light breeze occasionally shifted the streams of water into different patterns.  I will be posting more photographs of Yosemite Fall soon to share these different views.

Upper Yosemite Fall plunges 1,430 feet down.  It is one of the 20 highest waterfalls in the world.  The upper fall is formed by the waters of Yosemite Creek.

Stay tuned to see more of my Yosemite Fall photographs.
