Milky Way above Yosemite 2014
In August of 2014, my husband Gary accompanied me to Yosemite National Park with the express purpose of photographing The Milky Way, something I welcomed as a new challenge. At this time of year the Milky Way is above the horizon, and with no moon in the sky, the conditions were right. We were successful, first from Glacier Point above Yosemite Valley, and the next day from the slopes of Lembert Dome in Tuolumne Meadows—in the Yosemite high country .

I’m happy to share.
These are spectacular. Must have been a great trip.
Such beautiful photos Carowl 🙂 I’m glad the milky way wasn’t milked out by the Little Yosemite fire!
