The Merced River meanders through the Yosemite Valley right near the Ahwahnee Hotel. It was so amazing to see this amount of snow here! I wish I could take pictures here every day…but then go home to the “no snow” zone lol.

I always like to jump in and be a part of things, but sometimes it’s hard when I feel things are in a turmoil around me or within myself. And that’s what I adore about photography. No matter what’s going on, I can stop and have that moment of stillness and peace by appreciating Mother Nature even when it’s not a serene scene that I’m looking at. I don’t have to try and be a part of things or say or do the “right” thing. I just AM.

I never knew Great Blue Herons lived in Yosemite. I’m not sure why I didn’t think so, but it was a pleasant surprise to see this guy sitting on a snowy log. I could get so close, these weren’t even cropped. He just sat there going about his business. I’m not the best bird shooter that’s for sure, especially on a 15 degree morning with gloves on, but it was fun capturing this guy. 🙂
