I took this photo in 1986 with a Fujichrome 100 and a Minolta X700, scanned with a Nikon SuperCoolScan 5000 and postprocessed with Photoshop and Silver Efex Pro 2.
Concerning monochrome and Yosemite: Search for Ansel Adams in the internet and you will find a lot of beautiful monochrome photos by this famous artist, which he took in this National Park.

Yosemite Falls is the highest waterfall in Yosemite National Park, dropping a total of 739 m from the top of the upper fall to the base of the lower fall. The upper fall with its height of 440 m is formed by the swift waters of Yosemite Creek. Especially in April and here in May the falls are spectacular.
