Here's one from last Thursday morning from a popular spot on the valley floor. Sun wasn't quite up yet but gave some nice coloration to the sky.

This is a very beautiful scene, I love the tufts of grass, the rocks, the gentle Merced the great valley walls and the sky. I do see a bit of green in the water that is hard to figure out.
Hey Jim,
That is a nice view and that bit of color is nice. Did you get color at sunrise? I know when I was shooting sunrise from the bend, I had color around Half Dome, but directly behind me was gray so I was hoping you didn't get skunked at sunrise.
I noticed the same thing as ben pointed out, there is like a metallic green in the water in a couple of spots in the middle. It's the oddest looking green.

Really nice composition and light. Agree with the others about the green reflections in the water.

A very pleasant scene! The color palette in Yosemite is pretty amazing, especially in subdued lighting
