The Tail Between the Horses Leg...



...means there is no Horsetail Falls with the alpenglow picture today. I did set out on a drive for it, looping around the valley and stopping to take snapshots in the mid afternoon. I wasn't sure if it was visible at Tunnel View, and thought there was no better way to find out than to park there and wait. (Thinking about it later, all images I've seen of it are from a certain angle that is not near that vicinity.) So I brought along some homework to read and set the camera and tripod up outside the car and waited, and read, and snapped some photos, and read, and watched the sun fade, and read, and snapped some photos, etc. Driving down into the valley I passed the turnout that held all the cars for the photo I was looking for, but I just drove by. It was too late and there were too many people all next to each other taking the same photo. Next time. Anyways, I did manage to take some kind of Yosemite photograph today and here's two postcards to show for it...Enjoy, those near and far.
