I worked for almost a year looking directly up at that first one ....Yosemite Falls.

I walked that trail up and down so many times...just
awesome , and beyond description that place .

I also once helped Ansel Adams carry some of his camera
gear several times, and invited by his wife to visit with them down towards monterey/Carmel area after. I was a little adventurer/hiker up there in the heaven that is Yosemite , and know places you to go there you wouldn't believe. ...Ansel and his wife had/have a Gallery down in the valley just over from the Lodge .
Visited and stopped in often just to say "hi".

One of the greatest time I had there, was when I heard of these astronomers having a Meteor watch up ontop of Glacier Point ...I hiked up the 5mile trail , started a little late and made it up the switchbacks by dark ...(knew them by heart) and spent the entire night gazing at the heavens thru a 24" telescope they had set up.

I was surrounded by everything beautiful above and around me up there ....who needed sleep under those stars ? I don't
think I ever really made it down from there for a long long time , perhaps the rest of my life .

Such a great shot of the "Falls" , brings back so many
beautiful memories... I was /am always
partially still there .
