Hey Steem world!
This is a shot I took at Yosemite National Park in California, while we were camping down by a river on a 5 day backpacking trek. I put an alarm for the middle of the night, woke up and walked to the river in the freezing cold. I took this photo to get the mirror effect of the river, and then vertically swapped this in post processing.
Anyways, I just wanted to say that I'm loving Steemit, and how welcoming so many people are here. I started almost two weeks ago, and I'm only getting more and more involved and dedicated with this platform. I'm thankful for how it has inspired me to create again. I've done a lot of blogging/photography projects online before, and Steemit is my favorite one to date. It's such a great initiative to get out there and make something whether that's an article, a photograph, a story, etc. and to continue doing so. Thanks again to all the people who have encouraged me with their voting and comments, and here's to the coming weeks/months/years of Steemit!

Wow that's beautiful! I knew you were awesome since day one.
Please keep up the hard work!
Thank you!
That walk to the river in the freezing cold was totally worth it! It's beautiful!!
Yeah, I never regret it once it's done, but in the moment it can be hard to motivate myself haha
Haha I know! You kinda think it twice when the alarm goes off but if you don't hit the snooze button you know you'll do it and it will be worth it!
Wow, that is an amazing shot. How did your camera pick up all those stars?
Was at Yosemite this past summer...what a wonderful area.
Following and looking forward to more quality posts...
Thanks! I used long exposure (15s) and really high ISO. What part did you see at Yosemite? I've been to a decent amount of parks, but Yosemite was all around the best park I've ever been to (except for all the people ha).
Yeah, we went at the wrong time, let me tell you that. Fourth of July was nuts! Yes, an amazing park indeed. Wish we had more than one day to explore it though. Next time!
Haha I went late July. Still crazy but I'm sure not as bad as then! You should go back and spend more time there. I can't wait until I can go back.
Beautiful Scenerio
