 I fear grain ain't my thing. My team has been churning out fabulous options, and me.... blech.

We are in glorious Yosemite, but the weather has not been very cooperative - tons of incredibly sexy fog, which doesn't do much for views. Still, it's hard to complain with so much beauty. This image was taken at the Wawona Lodge, just inside the park.

It feels as if the chairs are still conversing.

I remember looking at this during the challenge and thinking that the sense of scale it shows is quite interesting.

Very nice emotive capture. It revives memories of a past never experienced, precisely, but that lives in our "nice times" department.

I love the silver sparkle of the tree. What a beautifully, peaceful spot.

Heck, I missed this completely! Wonderful hairdo of the tree and splendid light. I wish that the foreground was a touch darker.
