[Leica] Ice at Christmas

[leica_r8 at hotmail.com (Aram Langhans)]

We spent Christmas in Yosemite this year.  We were hoping for snow, but no
luck.  Christmas Eve was quite rainy a lot of the time, and it was supposed
to get cold that night, but the rain cleared out before it got cold enough
to snow.  But the cold did produce some interesting ice, and made walking in
places a bit hairy.  

 

Bridalveil Falls, while not having a great amount of flow, did produce a bit
of ice on the face of the cliff.

Along the Merced river, areas of low flow were able to accumulate some
interesting ice patterns.

I've got lots more to go through, and maybe convert some to B&W.  But still
being on our trip, I might not have time.
