Sanctuary in the Meadow
Captured in early autumn from Yosemite Valley’s iconic Cook’s Meadow, this evocative scene embodies the interplay between grandeur and intimacy. As Upper Yosemite Fall cascades powerfully through a veil of mist and early season clouds, a solitary deer pauses in the golden meadow, merging seamlessly into the landscape’s quiet rhythm. Shot with a Mamiya 645 medium format camera on Kodak Gold 400 film — expertly pulled in the lab to soften grain and enhance subtle tonal transitions — this image invites viewers to enter a tranquil sanctuary where light, mist, and life converge in fleeting harmony. Offered in a limited edition of 25 prints, each piece celebrates the timeless spirit of Yosemite in a moment of serene solitude.
