Summary (Question)

"Summarizing Indescribable"

Not words nor images can encompass the grandeur of the Yosemite Valley, but this scene struck me as having a unique combination of some of the most recognizable highlights. Limited time and all-day photography destined the majority of my interpretations for black and white (tradition may have played a subconscious role). This was the singular portfolio quality color image from the visit.

Thanks for viewing and for your thoughts.

Question: I would love to know definitively, if possible, the name of this meadow and the type of the tree. The view is from the side of the Happy Isle Loop road, on the right as I was returning from the Nevada Falls hike. I believe it is directly across the road from the Curry Camp (based on Google maps). I did see one photo that labeled the meadow as Curry Meadow, but there was another calling it Stoneman Meadow. I know there are experts out there. Thanks for your help everyone. It's much appreciated.
