Halfdome - Yosemite National Park, California

Not my favorite place to shoot Half Dome from but it is the most popular spot to shoot it from...

Off a bridge perhaps? Nice clouds and light on the top.

Love the light quality and the resultant colour tones in this version E.J. All your shots of this location are superb! 8) :D

Works OK for me. I guess there aren't that many options to shoot from.

Your icon shots of Yosemite have all been awesome - and this one is no exception. So while it may be a cliche image (if any image is cliche), it is still inspiring.

hmm...i like your other spot better ;) but still a great view!
nicely done man!
nice composition!

i'm sure that most photographs taken from this place are taken from 10am-2pm, and are horizontals ;)

One of your best photos that I've seen.

If only that bridge was about 200 feet higher! Imagine the possibilities....
