Horsetail Fall at Yosemite had several excellent days this year, but on Feb 19, I saw something I had never seen over many years there. Usually, on a good evening, there is a clear sky, or the sun breaks through patchy clouds and illuminates the Fall. But on the 19th, a heavy cloud bank with rain was moving east northeast through the area. It didn't appear it was going to clear in time. But at 17:30, a faint golden glow began to appear at the base of El Cap and moved upward toward the top, bathing the entire rock in light. Folks at Valley View & Tunnel View reported a strong shaft of light and rainbow. Where we were located, just east of the Fall, it was still raining lightly. But the light was stunning; "epic" is overused, but not this time. This image was taken as the extremely bright illumination of El Cap was beginning to dim. Eventually, the light faded on El Cap and produced the typical rosy-gold-orange hued horsetail. And it was also lovely. Unfortunately, my Phase had died the night before [going back to Denmark], but at this moment, that did not matter.
