Some shots from Yosemite... these are not original... but they're mine!

These locations are not at all unique. But they're from my camera. The one with the moon was taken on our way out of the park. The moon being there was an added bonus. Truth be told, getting these shots were a little more complicated than I though they would be. I'm beginning to appreciate those that have mastered this art a lot more! CC always welcome.

Thanks for the feedback. I feel a little bad for taking the easy way out with these shots. It's akin to shooting the Golden Gate Bridge, which is also in my back yard. You really can't take a bad photo of either if you know one end of a camera from the other. There were sooooo many times that I wanted to stop and explore after seeing some great scenes. But with kids in tow and my wife not nearly as enthusiatic about photography as I am, I wasn't able to get a lot of the shots I wanted to. These shots are from the tourist stop. Maybe I need to get on the motorcycle and make it day!
