Yosemite has made me come back after years to my own blog, albeit a bit late. This is a small try to put in my limited but wonderful experiences in Yosemite National Park, California.
Yosemite is one of most photographed places in the world. And why not? For where else can you find the gigantic rocks,mountains, trees, rivers, valleys, waterfalls everything within walkable distance of one another? I have been to this place 4 times and still have not explored many of the places and experiences this region has to offer. Of course, 2 out of the 4 times were a typical day travel amidst the summer crowd. The best was my most recent trip in December 2013 in the winter when the roads were next to deserted with only the determined few who were ready to face the freezing temperatures. Okay, let me start off with the pictures without much of writing.
The frozen Merced river
The Majestic El Capitan monolith
Summer or Winter, Life has to go on in the valley. A Sysco truck with essential supplies.
The best thing about winter trip is this. You can get right in the middle of the road without worrying too much about the traffic.
Snow covered road lined by tall conifers
No place to rest ;-)
The snow clearing machines at work
The light during sunrise the next morning was mesmerizing.
Half Dome just before sunrise
Tunnel View Vista point. Just that I turned around to click the tunnel instead of the view ;-)
Whew, After creating the blog 3 months ago, I finally published it now! Way to go with my punctuality. ;-)
Will try to be more regular with my pictures and travels. As usual, nothing guaranteed. :D. Hope you enjoyed these images from Yosemite National Park.
