February 2010, Yosemite National Park, California

Looking east over Yosemite Valley from Tunnel View is something that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.  From this vantage point the astonished visitor is treated to views of some of the most famous landmarks in the world.  El Capitan, Cloud's Rest, Half Dome and Bridalveil Falls can each be seen from this single location.  I was at Tunnel View for about 4 hours this particular morning, waiting for the clouds and fog to add just the right amount of drama to an already incredible scene.  Even if I had not gotten this image, just being at Yosemite is reward enough.
