Evening Reflection

Of all the iconic landmarks in Yosemite National Park, the Half Dome is my absolute favorite. I’ve taken photos of Half Dome from Glacier Point, from the Valley Floor, from the North Dome, from bridges, from meadows, at sunrise, at sunset, in the summer, in the winter, and this one from the Merced River at sunset. I’ve even done the Half Dome hike five times.

While the serenity of the Half Dome captured in its reflection in the Merced River is in itself mesmerizing, the natural colors of the sunset accent the majesty of Half Dome as it reigns over the Valley Floor.
