Now let's introduce you to the photos for today. The photos for today was from the 3rd day of my trip. Cook's Meadow and the Sentinel Bridge was so beautiful that I decided to reshoot some of the scenery as the sky cleared up a bit. For today, I have a few photos from near Yosemite Village, and photos from Cook's Meadow and the Sentinel Bridge.
Panorama of Indian Rock and Half Dome. I shot this panorama on the side of Northside Drive near Yosemite Village.

I then went back to the Sentinel Bridge to reshoot Half Dome. This is an HDR composition of the Merced River and Half Dome.

Remember that mushroom from a while back? (Blog post here) I decided to go back and do a focus stacked shot of the mushroom to get everything in focus. I still need help identifying the species though. If you know, please comment below.

I saw another photographer do a portrait shot of Half Dome on the Sentinel Bridge so I went back and reshot an HDR composition in vertical format. It turned out pretty well too.

An HDR composition of Half Dome and North Dome (left) from Cook's Meadow from one of my most favorite Half Dome photography spots. As I mentioned in a blog post before, I found (over the course of several trips) at this position, the rule of thirds worked the best when your focal length was between 35-50mm. I shot this photo at 16mm which turned out pretty good too.

The same photo as above that I processed in black and white.
Another HDR composition of Half Dome and North Dome (left) from my favorite spot in Cook's Meadow at almost the same position.

A small pond in Cook's Meadow. It made a really great reflection. Since the water was pretty calm, I decided to try an HDR composition. It was a success. I think the reflection is pretty cool. What you think? Comment below. :)
