There are times when a photo seems to seek out the photographer rather than the other
way around.  I woke up a bit later than usual at Yosemite, and there was a line at the shower,
so I decided to skip that and eat breakfast.  As I arrived at the cafeteria, about a hundred
middle school kids were in line ahead of me, so I decided to go look around.  I drove over to
Ahwahnee meadow, remembering the dogwoods I had seen in bloom the day before.  When I
parked the car, I saw this band of ground fog lying across the meadow.  I set up the camera,
and just as I was ready, the sun hit the grove of spring-green trees, lighting them up like
fireworks.  I shot four frames and changed lenses for a tighter shot, which is on another
page.  I couldn't help thinking that if the showers had been available, or the line for breakfast
had been shorter, I would have missed this photo altogether.  I don't think I have the
philosophical or theological depth to understand why these things happen, but I'm truly
thankful.

Sizes
As most people seem to
prefer them, prices are for
framed prints, ready to
hang.  I use a very nice
matt black wood frame 7/8
of an inch wide, with a white
mat.  If you would like to
order unframed prints, go to
the "Purchase" page for
pricing.
