Half Dome from Cooks Meadow

Yosemite, CA

For a brief few moments after the rising sun hits the valley floor, water vapor rises and presents the low lying mist seen here. The bare trees point to the coming winter and nicely camouflage the sky.

Nicely done, Mark, and it does look like Steve ran off with the fall foliage.

Not only does the mist make this nice, the framing/composition is exquisite!

Early starts really pay off, the mist makes more use of the highlights. very nice, Mark.
