Description:It comes once a year and one of the best places in the world in Fall is Yosemite Valley.
Early Fall that is, because the waterfalls and rivers can be a little dry in a low year.
But when the Merced River is full enough it invites reflections on the landscape with gold all around.
The sun starts to dip lower and the shadows are longer, somehow giving the cliffs more splendor.
Location: Yosemite Valley, California, USA, North America
