Half Dome--Weekend Reflections

What's this, an impressionist's painting of Half Dome?
It's backwards!
No, it is Half Dome reflected in Mirror Lake.
We had a wonderful time in Yosemite this week and all of my shots are of incredibly blue skies and raging water. It was Yosemite at its absolute best, I wish you could have been with us.

See more reflections at Weekedend Reflections, hosted for us by James at Newtown Area Photo.

    Wow! It's hard to know which way is up. What incredible textures, and such a gorgeous blue sky. You aren't kidding about it being incredible.

    My mother climbed it (of which I only have her word--no pictures, but if it weren't for her lifelong total truthfullness, I would never have thought it.) I do have pictures Dad took of Mirror Lake from 1928. He did not know Mother yet. You are trying to entice me.

    Oh I miss Yosemite! Thank you for posting this wonderful and clever reflection, it is indeed hard to discern it at first!

    Every time I see Half Dome or any other photo of this amazing place, I think of Ansel Adams and his lifetime achievents and revolutionary works.

    Ciao
