It was kind of hazy in the late morning when we arrived, but in the afternoon, the clouds turned wispy and then puffy, and the sky turned crystal blue.
We rode all the way out to Mirror lake. The view of Half Dome is most excellent from that perspective.
I didn't take a tripod on the bike, so all of the pictures you've seen so far were hand-held bracketed images. I held my breath and stood really still!
Neither one of us has ever ridden bikes around the Valley before. It was the best! I highly recommend it.
Yosemite Falls wasn't much more than a dribble.
This close-up pic of Yosemite Falls is not HDR. All the preceding pics were.
The puffy clouds were casting about shadows through the Valley as we stopped at Inspiration Point (Tunnel View) on the way out. This is another HDR shot.
I don't know why we don't go there more often...
