Half Dome Meadow at Sunset
While Half Dome is always impressive as it rises up from a multitude of vantage points at Yosemite, during the sunrise and sunset hours it takes on a special majesty. I particularly like this photograph with the contrasting dark colors of green and some purple highlights among the wildflowers in the foreground.
This field was only a short walk from our lodging and it was difficult to get enough of this view!
Fact: Did you know that the North Face outdoor company uses a stylized version of Half Dome as their Logo?
