I can't tell you how much I loved being in Yosemite National Park for a week. The scenery there was absolutely astounding... especially in contrast to the endless flat farmland I'm surrounded by in my day-to-day life. There was no shortage of photography opportunities, which made me quite happy, to say the least.

This is the view from, I believe, Route 120, coming in toward the valley from the west. I took this on the way back from Tuolumne Meadows... it's a bit of a different perspective than that at Tunnel View, as seen here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8398484/ In a way I almost like this vantage point better... it makes everything more snug, like a compact version of Tunnel View, giving you two of the park's most famous landmarks right next to one another. At left is El Capitan, and at center is Half Dome.
