“Twilight on Mammoth Peak”

A picture of Mammoth Peak from Tioga Lake near Yosemite.

About the Day

Took the family to Yosemite so they could play in the snow before it melted. Since my family didn’t want to stay in the park while I took photos at sunset (and beyond), I dropped them off at the motel in Lee Vining, ate dinner, and drove back to the park. I decided to stay just shy of Tioga Pass, right here at Tioga Lake. I thought about walking (climbing) down to the shore, but decided I’d stay up here at the vista - much safer for me...LOL!

I really liked the pastel colors displayed after sunset more than the actual sunset this time.
