I was in Yosemite last week (note the smoke) and made these photos of Half Dome from Glacier Point. The first is at 18mm, the second is at 250mm and the third is big crop. One of our more thoughtful photographers here at UHH, minniev, has done an excellent job of demonstrating the value of little human figures included in a photo to demonstrate scale. These folks certainly do that and also introduce a feeling of tension, al least for me! It takes great effort to get up there and just one foolish mistake to make a very quick return trip to the valley floor! Please try the downloads.

One can sure tell that chunks of the face of Half Dome have been sliding into the valley for eons. It's really cool to see those figures in the last two images,
they convey a great sense of scale.

Come on, you're a madman, of course you would! Seriously, I have been up the cables on the back side of Half Dome several times and I am 69 and find it neither technical or strenuous. This is my daughter and a friend from a couple of years ago which you can see a flat stand point where most who hike up there take their turn on that point. This is where the people in the photos are standing.

Nope - I might be mad, not crazy, but I'm mostly a coward!
