Liberty Cap, Vernal Fall and Nevada Falls viewed from Glacier Point

Half Dome is not the only intriguing feature to view from Glacier Point. Vernal and Nevada Falls offer a show of their own. The photograph above shows Vernal Fall (bottom, left) and Nevada Falls (upper, right). Also prominent is Liberty Cap mountain in the upper left portion of the picture.

Half Dome: Getting Close 3/3 – Year of Yosemite (YOY) – Day 287

Half Dome viewed from Glacier Point

A closer view of Half Dome taken from Glacier Point

This is the last of three different photographs, in my most recent series, of Half Dome taken from Glacier point. I have tried to provide increasingly closer views to arrive at this particular scene. As you can see, it is quite majestic in size and form.

I am not sure the textures show as well in the photograph as they did in the actual vista, but there are many crevices and ridges of various colors which give this Yosemite big wig a lot of character.
