I captured this image of Yosemite Valley at sunset. Swirling clouds between the setting sun and the valley did not permit me to capture the faces of El Capitan and Half Dome fully “lit”. However, I do think the shadows the clouds created lend some interest to the scene and they also put more emphasis on Bridal Veil Falls. (Which I believe that anyone that follows my blog knows I tend to favor waterfalls.) I hope everyone finds an opportunity to get out and explore for themselves this weekend.
I captured this image using my 24-70mm f/2.8 lens tripod mounted. Thanks for stopping by.
I love Yosemite! I would love to see more pictures of the sunsetting as well.

Such a Beautiful National Treasure 🙂 Thank You for Sharing it 🙂
What a lovely place 🙂
Tunnel View! Beautiful!
Very majestic vista. Did you see Yosemite Sam around? 😉
Thank you. Unfortunately, my path did not cross his on this trip. I’m going to try to find him next time.
He’ll cuss ya 😉
LOL. He’d have to stand in line to do that. (;
:O
A magnificent photo! I have been lucky to visit Yosemite many times, including the times in my youth when there were less people, and the evening fire fall was a reality.
Thanks, Robert. You have been very fortunate. It is such an incredible place.
Wow.. that place looks awesome!! Lovely shot which really captures this place of natural wonder!
Cheers
