Half dome framed by fall colors

Half dome is framed by fall leaves in Ahwahnee meadow. In fall, as the trees change color, they offer ample opportunity for framing landmarks. In this photo, taken from Ahwahnee meadows, Half Dome is framed by fall colors.

October in Yosemite Valley, and the maples are turning color. The first dusting of snow is visible on Half Dome's north face, and the air is crisp.
