Yosemite Grand
Photo Location: Yosemite National Park, CA
Ansel Adams was fascinated by verdant meadows of Yosemite Valley stretch out in a peaceful expanse of emerald green, dotted with the broad, ancient forms of valley oaks whose gnarled branches reach toward the open sky. Behind them, the sheer granite face of Half Dome rises dramatically into the blue, its iconic silhouette standing as a timeless sentinel over this breathtaking scene.
