Breaking Dawn

[BlackRockArt]

Hi all.

The Half Dome, even after so many trips to Yosemite National Park, the sight is still dominating, grandurer, anywhere you go in the valley, you see it.

This is the more mundane shot: Half Dome at the breaking dawn.

There were only three of us the night before, in the morning there were 68 photographers lined up in the parking lot of Tunnel View, oh well, I managed to squeeze in for a quick shot.

Enjoy

I love the atmospherics in this one. Glad you were able to find a spot to shoot this from.

Love it Oliver! Half Dome is my favorite icon of Yosemite. I like it when the clouds pour off sideways on the far side. I have some images where the sun turned those golden, like there was fire coming off Half Dome. So great job on squeezing in.

I think sunset is the best time to be there actually. Sunrise can be great too, but yeah the crowds often seem worse at sunrise and you are shooting into the sun which can make the shot hard unless there are clouds to block the sun.
