A stunning winter view of Half Dome, one of Yosemite National Park's most recognizable landmarks. The massive granite monolith rises dramatically, its distinctive rounded dome summit and sheer northwestern face partially covered in snow and ice. The lower portions show exposed gray granite rock faces with vertical striations, while evergreen trees dot the foreground and slopes. The clear blue sky provides a crisp backdrop to this iconic Sierra Nevada formation.
