Sentinel Beach - Yosemite National Park by peter
So when I travel to parks I generally like to find a hard walk that takes me to a mountain top for a spectacular view. However, with a new baby in tow I’ve become a little more conservative. No scrambling up uncertain paths for me. And that’s more than okay because it helps me to stop and enjoy what I have rather than what is just out of reach. In a recent trip to Yosemite I came across this great little ‘beach’ a short walk off the road … I sat down here and soaked in the glory of our planet and watched my little baby girl frolic on the beach … well actually I watched her pick up everything she could lay hands on an try to eat it … including a rather large rock …
Anyway, I think the view from the bottom can be every bit as good as the view from the top … and I’m going to have to get more used to it!

Nice capture !

spectacular shot Peter
A beautiful scene here Peter and captured very nicely. I do agree wholeheartedly that the view can be spectacular from the bottom as it is from the top. In my short time behind the lens, I have learned that “the view” can be spectacular from any vantage point and it doesn’t matter what the subject is. I am constantly amazed at the beauty that is found in the most ordinary of sights once they are viewed through a camera lens. Moreso, I am amazed at the things I now see that I never saw before even though they were right there in front of me. Thank you for sharing this wonderful sight. ~Len
A great shot, yosemite has always been a favorite place (my very first Bear encounter, up close and personal), your daughter is lucky to learn about the earth through your heart and eyes ;)
Beautiful shot Peter… crisp & clear… what a great spot!
Beautiful place and a beautiful image
