Beautiful skies. Great shots
Lovely contrails streaming across the sky! Love these shots! Great captures, indeed.

Love your swirly sky, Martha! I'm wondering if you're home or at your home-away-from-home?
Beautiful point! I am so glad you included the information sign. I do wish I could have read all of the right side tho . . . I have found that if I get the whole sign in my shot, it will enlarge on computer for anyone to read that wants to.
We will head to our home-away-from-home soon, I hope. Hubby is having some dental problems but winter is coming and the cabin must be winterized, soon. Water system will shut down at the end of next week and the lack of water would complicate the shut down process.
It's amazing how these trees grow in granite/stone. It's a lovely place, I wanna go back for a visit.
Gorgeous skies! And the clouds are so lacy and almost decorative. I've had Yosemite on my mind for days since watching Ken Burns' --and learning about John Muir.
Thanks for sharing!
Lovely skies...quite a variety of cloud formations...unusual. Thanks for sharing.
Well OF COURSE you're going to get great sky photos; you're so much closer up there. ;-)
Thanks for the tips about cloud photos. Yours are outstanding!! I'm working with a point & shoot, but I also use a polarizing filter. "Midtone contrasts?" I may need to look into Elements.
That's a treat being able to get so close to the top. I love the filmy clouds of the sky.
These are awesome photos. I enjoyed all three and they join my favorites for the day.
Beautiful Martha!!!
What magnificent skies you've captured and shared! Thanks so much ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

I like how the clouds are strung out in all directions.
And am a big fan of Olmsted.
Also love your water photos in the post below.
Yosemite and a beautiful sky can only create a beautiful photograph! I love the light and feathery clouds. Very nice!
Martha, your skies are to die for, so very beautiful.

Martha, what fantastic photos of the mountains and skies. That clouds look like wind blown snow drifting through the sky.
these photos are striking with the single trees and boulders against the sky. I like the feeling.
These are magnificent! Love that color of blue!
Beautiful skies. I watched about half of PBS's 12-hour documentary, "National Parks: America's Best Idea." I thought of you every time they featured Yosemite.
How beautiful! I haven't been to that part of the world since I was a young child, I'd love to return someday.
Superb, what a cloud formation that is! Reminds me of the Northern skies~

Great skies! I've been so busy with S. Ont. trips, trees, and leaves I haven't had time to post!
Oh, I loved that place. We stopped when we crossed the Sierras on the Tioga Road. I loved the junipers growing out of the cracks, the natural bonsais
