Half Dome - Yosemite National Park, California

This is my favorite shot from my trip to Yosemite over Thanksgiving.

Neat shot. I was at Glacier Point and saw theglow well after sunset. I think my time was a reflection from the setting sun on the sea, then bouncing off clouds to make the golden glow well after sunset. This is very nice and easily seen why you value it. 8) :shock: :shock: 8) :D

It's probably my favorite because it took me three nights of waiting around before I got the mountain to light up like I wanted :)

Never been out that way this late in the year...It's surprising to me to see the color still lingering on the trees.
Obviously, another awesome Yosemite image- apparently, you have much to be thankful for! This is awesome!!

E.J. this is stunning. I had to wait to see it at home on a real monitor before commenting. You had some spectacular light in Yosemite. Combined with a master photographer and the results are inspiring!
