Brief trip to Yosemite

This article is the another in a series of articles that I’ve called “About this photo” to draw attention to a few of those memorable photos that may be hiding in a shoebox or on your hard drive.

On a recent drive from Reno to Los Angeles, I had a few extra hours and chose to make a quick drive through Yosemite National Park.

I’ve been to the park many times, but it’s been a very long while since I visited the area known as Glacier Point. Here you will witness an astonishing view of Yosemite Valley and its inspirational surroundings.

Every once in a while, I snap an image which has an emotional effect on me.

The formation straight ahead is the iconic Half Dome.

This photograph reminds me of the first time I experienced this awesome sight more than 40 years ago. I feel much of the same awe that I felt when I was much younger. It’s simply amazing.
