[Leica] IMG: Hoppies in Yosemite, the last photo set

[leicar at q.com (Aram Langhans)]

I'll kill 2 birds with one stone.
 
Geoff - great shots.  The lighting is always best as the weather is 
changing.  Photograph edges, I always say.
 
Richard - I have been to Yosemite three times in the past year.  Last 
January Mirror Lake had some water in it, and it was frozen, of course.

This past Spring it had a lot of water and had good reflections, except it 
was a bit windy the two days we walked out there.

Then this past October it was dry as a bone.  Looked like a sand desert on 
teh bottom.  But then, this has been a drought year.
Can't find my photo of my wife "swimming" on the sand.  Must be I never put 
it on the web and it is at home.
 
So, I am currently sitting in Southern California for a few more weeks 
hoping a snow storm will drift in by then so I can repeat the performance of 
last January.  Yosemite is magical in the snow.  Good pictures where ever 
you point the camera.  Impossible to take a bad picture.
