\nHad the opportunity a couple of weeks ago during one of my signing trips to CA to do a quick run to Yosemite.\u00a0 And by quick I mean I was only in the park for 12hrs.\u00a0 It’s amazing, I’ve been able to be there 3 times in the last 12 months.\u00a0 Something I never even thought might happen.\u00a0 Of course my knowledge of the area is very cursory right now but I consider the time there some of my most productive.\u00a0 This particular evening I finally made the park entrance around 11pm.\u00a0 The moon had rose a couple of hours before and the valley was bathed in awesome, bright moonlight.\u00a0 I drove around a bit to get the feel for this new look and, not wanting anything too crazy of an adventure, decided to pick a location I hadn’t been to before.\u00a0 Of course…sitting outside the gate, at 1130pm, the only thing I could think of was being in the dark, by myself…with bears.\u00a0 I know I know they’re big scared ‘cats’ and run away, but when alone in the woods…eek.\u00a0 So after gathering up some courage and motivation via a friendly reminder I packed up my camera bag, put on my big boy pants and off I went down the trail.\u00a0 Ok…so to get a better picture of the scene imagine just a fair amount of dragging my feet on the ground and taking big heavy steps…to make noise of course.\u00a0 This way I dont startle anything that would want to make me a snack.
\nDown to the river, then using my headlamp to find the path along the banks.\u00a0 Weaving in and out of folliage, I come around the bend and BAM…what a reflection!\u00a0 So of course to work I go.\u00a0 Now walking and making noise is one thing, but standing still and quiet allows other things to possibly<\/em> sneak up on me…so occasionally I let out a ‘yip’…you know…just to make them aware of my presence \ud83d\ude42
\nSpending about an hour making as much as I could of the special light and reflection, the clouds danced across the sky continually making some truly awesome patterns. \u00a0 I finally decided it was time to pack up and get a few hours of sleep in the car before sunrise…so I could come right back here again.
\n 
\nGetting the images back home and seeing the results it makes all the darkness and creepy feelings with it….as long as I dont get eaten \ud83d\ude09

\nThanks!
