Siesta Lake is not down at the valley of the Yosemite National Park. It is on the Route 120/Tioga Road at the northern side of the park. We took the Tioga Road to drive from Yosemite to Lee Vining at the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada mountain to continue our photographic tour with Dave Wymen and Ken Rockwell last October. The road was closed for several days due to snow and was only just opened for traffic the morning that we took the trip. Dave reminded us to look out for this small lake for its beautiful Fall scenery. 
Ansel Adams took a picture of the lake in 1958 and captured the peace and serenity of the lake in black and white. Over 50 years later we took advantage of the modern color digital photography to capture the multiple Fall color of the foliage around the lake. If he had the same technical advantage as we have, would he still use the black and white film or he would also try to explore the scenery with color?To see more flowers from around the world click here.

Very lovely!
I've been a fan of Ansel Adams since my teenage years. I think probably for the black and white but you can't help but wonder what he would do given the advantage. I bet they would be beautiful. :)

awesome work!! evrey pic is speaking thousand words!!
Walking in Ansel's footsteps, how wonderful.
My vote is for digital and I don't think he would have been against post processing with a computer. He was quite an innovator. I once saw his camera collection and it had quite a bit of modern stuff (for his time).
beautiful flowers and relaxing place
