Subject: [Leica] A few shots from a morning along the Merced River in Yosemite

The river is down quite a bit from a month ago after the rain but there?s 
still a flow. The images here are from a side channel that is now cut off 
from the main flow.

This first image looks east toward Half Dome. I?ve chosen to emphasize the 
reflections in the water:

A mirror-flat pool reflected the northern cliffs

Yes - VERY still. I liked the detail of the tiny twigs still sharp on the 
surface:

And finally there were these plants standing in the frosty grasses:

All taken with Leica SL2-S and the 28-70 Vario f2.8. I now regret now going 
for the 28-90mm instead. The extra reach would make for a more versatile 
single lens camera although it?s substantially larger.

Thoughts/criticisms are most welcome.
