Reflection at Ottoway
Lower Ottoway Lake. Yosemite National Park.
The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.
John Muir

Your photos always look great no matter what time of day! Th earth appear to have collided into each other from either side of this view that you get the zigzag trail formed between them. Well hey, that’s how mountains are formed; speaking of which, pretty mountains in the back ;)
