The smoky haze that filled the valley lended an ethereal quality to the well known landscape. As the vegetation was dying off and the park was getting ready to go to sleep for winter mother nature added the destruction of a devastating fire season. The valley itself was untouched by the fire but the smoke that hung heavily between the mountains added a golden haze to the scene. Despite many road closures, I made the trip with my daughter to photograph the colors of fall in one of my favorite places. This photo of the cottonwood stand in Ahwahnee meadow perfectly depicts both the beauty and the melancholy of the moment.
