Sunburst at Tenaya Lake
This shot was taken during the middle of the afternoon on a late summer day at Tenaya Lake, which is at about 8,000 feet on the north side of the valley. This particular lens (Canon 16-35) captures a great "sunburst," which is a cool effect. I returned to Tenaya Lake to take night photos, which are included in another gallery.
Sunset at Glacier Point
One of the most iconic views in Yosemite is of Half Dome from Glacier Point, particularly at sunset. This was taken on a beautiful late summer day. I returned to take night photos at Glacier Point, which was complicated by smoke from the King Fire entering the valley. Check out the same view in the night photos.
