After my early morning photography, my wife and I returned to the park to drive to Glacier Point. It is a long drive, but well worth the time, as the views from the stops along this route are spectacular.
I shot with both my iPhone and my DSLR with 24-70mm lens and 80-400mm lens with an extension tube. It was not optimal time for the best light for landscape photography, but this was the only opportunity I would have to be here for the foreseeable future, so I captured many images while I could do so.
Sub Dome blends into the background in some of these shots, but it is just above and to the left of the two waterfalls, which might appear small in these images, but those are quite large.
Sub Dome towers above Vernal Falls and Nevada Falls.
The bridge over the stream feeding Nevada falls and the many people around the top of the falls only became apparent upon using the 80-400mm lens.
There were some people standing near the top of Vernal Falls in this image, but I removed them in Lightroom. I think there may be other people in the far background, but I did not attempt removing those small, fuzzy objects.
These images are representative of the views from Glacier Point and Washburn Point overlooks.
Thanks for following,

Good that you actually saw waterfalls. During my visit there, all the waterfalls were dry for that time of year.
Yes, others have said the same. I guess it was the relatively recent heavy rains or snows that kept the water flowing longer this year.
Well, I’m glad to see you got your blog back in working order. Awesome place and post!
Yes, it is an awesome place. I wish I had more time there. We were just returning from a trip with another purpose and took time to stop by Yosemite.
