Black Oaks Of The Valley by Matt Purciel
With Hurricane Sandy bearing down on the East Coast, today’s Photo Of The Day comes from the recent Stormy Weather Assignment. Matt Purciel took this photo in Yosemite Valley. He writes, “While I was trying to capture a shot of El Capitan in the center of the shot was this scene. I loved the way the stark contrast of the black oak against the illuminated face of El Capitan. The storm clouds were enshrouding the nearby cliffs creating some interesting and moodly light.”
