Wow.
I was just going through the pics from the Glacier Point trip and there are just so many good ones.
The hard part is choosing.
There are quite a few similar ones, each showing something just slightly different that the next, yet each showing something particular for itself. How can you choose among all the mid-range photos, the not-iconic photos, but still really good photos?
I'm going to have to post more to the photos page, when I get the chance.
Lot's more, obviously.
But that's true of all my albums.
<Sigh>
Life sure is rough when you're having so much fun.
I'm trying to plan out my trip for the most fun, meaning the best trip, plus photos, videos, or just plain things to do.
I think I'm going to try to do a decent video of the hike, (better than the ones I usually do, I hope.)
Get a lot of good photos from Half Dome, but... where else, too?
I'm thinking maybe Glacier Point again, the day before Half Dome, to get an intro and a look at what I'm going for before I go.
But what all else?
I'm aiming to get there the 3rd and come home the 6th.
Artists Point or Lookout near the tunnel, early?
What time is best for that view?
Can you see anything great from Tioga Pass Road?
Should I hang in front of El Capitan for a few hours to see what I can see?
How is Mirror Lake doing?
What else should I do?
On the 4th, I'm starting real early for Half Dome.
I also intend to get back real late.
I want lots of photos of different times and places along the way.
Some of those will be best taken on the way back because of lighting or other concerns.
This is to be an all day trip, regardless if I could actually do it in less.
I need to take two lunches, not just one.
Besides, I might get back really late, ( moon phase chart.)
It looks like it could be nice out.
