Yosemite Annual Lightshow At Horsetail Waterfalls - 02/18/18

We attended this spectacular natural lightshow for the second time in three years. It takes place once a year in mid-February. Every year, thousands of enthusiastic photographers convene to the park to be mesmerized by this lighting phenomenon. This year, Mother of Nature did fool many of the attendees by not performing the show according to the estimated time at sunset. When the spectators were very positive that it was not going to happen, they put their camera gear away and left the scene. There was about ten of us left out of hundreds. It was at that very moment the show started and lasted just for sixty seconds (as shown in the last seven photos of this gallery). Very few of us watched the light show as it unfolded from the start until the end when the light faded away...
