Story

Captured in October 2011, the image presents a broad eye-level view across the Merced River in Yosemite National Park. Calm water leads through grassy banks and an open meadow toward steep granite cliffs and forested Sierra Nevada slopes, while a narrow waterfall and scattered autumn foliage add detail to the scene. The horizontal panorama is suited to editorial, travel, conservation, and landscape-focused visual projects.
