6. What looks like red-hot lava flowing from the top of a mountain is actually an amazing visual illusion of nature itself - the rays of a sunset falling on a waterfall. But this is only until February, when fire “carved by the sun” breaks down from the rocks instead of water. It was by this time that photographers and travelers gathered on the northern approach to Mount El Capitan in order to capture this miracle of nature.
