The first winter storm came early this year allowing for a perfect combination of fall colors and fresh snow in Yosemite Valley. This was a very efficient trip, because I left my home in San Francisco Bay Area at 5 am, got to the park by 10 am, kept shooting through sunset, and got back home by 10 pm.
