Oak tree with orange foliage in a Yosemite Valley meadow as light rain falls.

This was shot in the rain in a meadow not too far from Sentinel Bridge, if I recall correctly. I liked the mist almost obscuring the cliffs in the distance, and like the fall color on the large tree – but I also like something that is perhaps not too easy to see on this small version, the more distant trees on the right sort of fading into the misty rain.
