| Image 1: Yosemite's El Capitan |
In March 2023, I had the opportunity to visit Yosemite National Park in California. Getting up early to see the sunrise, I took these photos of El Capitan, a majestic wall of granite rock that's 3000 feet high (over 900 meters). I took this photo from across the valley floor, looking up.

I love the way the early morning sun warmed the usually gray rock walls with a golden glow. A shadow line cast by neighboring rock formations made El Capitan fade to blue at the bottom, a blue which matched the cloudless sky. The rock backdrop framing the tree's organic silhouettes created a contrast between fragile living trees and ancient solid rock.

Yosemite had many notable views, which I hope to share in future posts. There are so many places to be in the park at sunrise! Where to go, and for how long? I looped the valley floor, enjoying what I could find.
