Yosemite 'Fire Waterfall' - Extremely Rare Photos

Vatic Note:  This was so unique and unusual, that I thought it was appropriate to put up here because this is one of the places the people of the United States owns that belongs to us and our posterity for our use and enjoyment, however, its rumored that it will be taken in payment for defaulted debt.  Or it will be sold to raise the funds to pay off the debt. Sound familiar?  Its exactly what the internationalists have done to third world countries, now its our turn, in fact IMF and Goldman Sucks used the exact same people,  "Summers and Geithner".   

What a coincidence. I also understand they will give away our freeways and roads to private interests who will then put up tolls, so you paid with your taxes to build the roads and now you will pay again when they privatize them.  How, nice. OUR PORTS ARE ALREADY GONE.    So, its important you know what they are doing in your name and with your property without your permission and if they got the permission of congress, well, you need to know that too.  

But understand when looking at these, the national treasures we have taken for granted that they will steal from us intentionally AND NEVER MEET JUSTICE FOR DOING SO.   This is where the rubber meets the road.   I don't think riots or demonstrations will change anything, but who knows,  maybe we can touch some spark of humanity in those perverted souls who seem to exist in deep pain that all those trillions cannot chase away.   . 

Yosemite 'Fire Waterfall' - Extremely Rare Photos

This park was gazetted as a national park in 1890. It is world famous for its rugged terrain, waterfall and century-old pine trees. It covers 1200 sq km and the "fire" waterfall of El Capitan is one of the most spectacular of all scenery.





The spectacular view of the waterfall is created by the reflection of sunlight hitting the falling water at a specific angle. This rare sight can only be seen at a 2-week period towards the end of February. To photograph this rare event, photographers would often have to wait and endure years of patience in order to capture them. The reason is because its appearance depends on a few natural phenomena occurring at the same time...and some good luck.

First is the formation of the waterfall - The water is formed by the melting of snow and ice at the top of the mountain. It melts between the month of December and January and by the end of February there might not have much snow left to melt










Second is the specific angle of the sunray hitting the falling water. The sun's position must be exactly at a particular spot in the sky. This occurs only in the month of February and at the short hours of dusk. If it is a day full of clouds or something blocking the sun, you can only take pictures of your own sorry faces on the waterfall.

It coincides with the fact that the weather in the National Park at that time of the year is often volatile and unpredictable. It compounds to the difficulty of getting these pictures.

Someone did and we all get to see it !!!
