Half Dome
This blog is dedicated to our youngest daughter, Barbara. Probably ten or more years ago Barbara climbed Half Dome (upper left portion of bottom photo). The photo she shared had a cropped photo of half dome. We had little idea of the height and the effort required. Today we are in awe of her effort.

Yosemite National Park is one of the most beautiful treasures that belongs to all of us, thanks to the foresight of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt. One feels an orchestration of beauty, nature, and the serenity of the daily unfolding of the cosmic show as the sun reflects from different angles and the moon reflects yet another light. The High Sierras are a granite rock 400 miles long and 84 miles wide with some of the most beautiful formations reaching to the heavens..

The photo opportunities are endless. Do you remember CBS Sunday Morning with Charles Kuralt and how the program ended focusing on a beautiful nature video? Photography does not include the chirping of birds or the thunderous sounds of the waterfalls, or the buzzing of the bees on the wildflowers.
