Spring storm clouds over El Capitan and Half Dome above Yosemite Valley, Yosemite National Park, California - ID# VLY2-2005
When traveling into Yosemite National Park from the west, there are two places on either side of Yosemite Valley where you can get a great view of Half Dome and El Capitan in the same frame. This scenic vista looking at the two great geological granite monoliths of Yosemite Valley is a bit unusual because the two giant rock formations are around five miles apart, and the viewpoints are another five miles west of El Capitan, making Half Dome nearly 10 miles away. On this day, a spring storm was passing over the Sierra Nevada and the mountains of Yosemite National Park. With a tight framing to show the closeness of both Half Dome and El Capitan, I noticed how this one dark cloud seemed to reach down out of the sky and almost caress the top of Half Dome.
