Tenaya Lake, Yosemite National Park

Taking a break from P365. I went with a group of photographers to Yosemite in May. We did some of the normal tourista stuff, but also got off the beaten path a bit. The photos below are of Tenaya Lake on the Tioga Pass road. The week after these were shot, the road was closed again because of snow. It's beautiful, wild and remote. Having grown up in northeastern Ohio, I'm used to lakes have sandy or mud bottoms. Tenaya has a granite bottom, with little drifts of granite pebbles and very little vegetation. It's lovely. If you go to Yosemite take the time - and the hair-raising drive - to visit the high country.
