Merced River and Yosemite Falls

This is an image of Yosemite Falls and the Merced River taken from the swinging bridge in Yosemite Valley.
The foreground consist of the Merced River. The river is relatively tranquil as it is winter and the water from the falls is reduced due to the cold temperatures at higher elevation.
On the left bank of the river grows tall pine trees, mostly Douglas Firs. On the right side of the river the banks are lined with hardwood trees. These trees have lost their leaves for the winter.
At the base of the upper falls you can see an ice cone that has built up during the winter. The shear rock cliffs frame the falls. 
The sky is full of big fluffy clouds with just a hint of blue sky just above the falls.
