Story:
It was our first visit to Yosemite; winter was just starting; it was almost Christmas time. I had only knowledge of Yosemite based on Ansel Adams, and some guidance from the park ranger.
On our way to Mirror Lake, I found it smaller compared to the images I had seen from Ansel’s book. The amount of sediments deposited throughout the years had reduced its size.
A tourist showed me marks where the lake used to be, when he was young and visiting with his father.
Walking back, I found these icicles. I had a small traveling tripod, which was no appropriate for the heavy camera. Most of the images that needed a tripod except three, came out blurred. Since then, I make space in my suitcase for the heavy and sturdy Gitzo tripod.
