Thanks everyone! Definition of sadness, at Yosemite, is when the clouds fully clear out. When the storm is starting to clear, it is a wonderland and you really need to have your head on a swivel, because it keeps changing, within a matter of seconds. This is my 4th time in the valley and the first time I noticed all these features close to Yosemite Falls. It took special conditions for me to notice all of these features.
