Merced River, Yosemite National Park, CA
This was another image taken with an 8x10 view camera in the absolute pouring rain. The exposure of 1/4 sec is just long enough to not record the drops of rain falling, but it was a soaker.
The river level was exceptionally high with the snow melt. I was slightly concerned with trying to keep the equipment dry, much more concerned with not getting too close to the raging waters whose levels can increase suddenly to the level of flash flood during the spring in Yosemite.
