This was taken from the opposite side of Yosemite Valley at Glacier Point. I was actually above the fall here. I just barely was able to squeeze them in at 70mm.

Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:

Impressive perspective!

If only the lightning was more spectacular in some way the picture would have been a killer!

Beautiful shot, Skip! How long was the hike to get up that high? Looks like it must have been a killer!

Very impressive. These are scenes I have never seen. I have got to get to some of those trails.

Yes Suedezu the light was not the best that day. Of course when you look ad Duder's images I think he brings his own lighting :-)

BeccaNH, Julio, it is actually just a short walk from the parking lot at the end of Glacier Point road. The look straight down to the valley floor is some 3000+ feet. Not for the faint of heart.
