Inspiration Point in Yosemite

Spent a marvelous New Years Day in Yosemite today. Sunny and cold. The granite rocks are just awe-inspiring. Half Dome is in the back and on the right is Bridalveil Falls.

I see the sun is casting shadows and the snow up high...nice capture! I bet the water is really cold!

I'm back after a break too. Its hard to leave 365, isn't it?

@mikegifford Hi Mike. I've been told this is one of the most photographed spots in the U.S. There were at least 15 people there complete with tripods among a lot of visitors like me. I did not have the time to sit and wait for the "perfect light". So I got my shot and continued on my way, driving through Wawona Tunnel and rocking out to Jimi Hendrix. Good times!

Gorgeous shot.

Wonderful way to start the new year - like the touch of snow, the waterfall, those lovely rocks, and that beautiful foreground.

Beautiful capture. Interesting shadow over the lower range.

That's just breathtaking! I feel as though I just had an opportunity to visit! Happy New Year! What a beautiful beginning!
