The Best Yosemite Photography Of Each Season

By Lynda Ratliff


For landscape photographers, it does not get much better than Yosemite photography. From the novice putting up vacation pictures on social networks to professionals capturing the beauty in fine art photos, everyone appreciates the magnificence of the area. No photographer will leave this photogenic beauty disappointed.

Half Dome and El Capitan rock formations are two of the stars of the area. Photographing El Capitan from Cathedral Beach or even from El Capitan Meadows will give you the best results. Half Dome presents itself in the brilliant light of sunset best from Glacier Point. Any other time of day, try capturing it from another amazing vantage point at Cooks Meadow.

As the seasons change, so do the opportunities for great photos. Frazil ice takes center stage in early spring. An awesome view of this natural phenomenon is from Yosemite Creek. This rushing giant slushy fans out from the bottom of Yosemite Falls.

The twenty-one rushing waterfalls of the park show off best for photographers in late spring or early summer. Yosemite Falls, the highest of these, boasts also being the highest falls in America. Bridalveil Fall is one of the most popular falls for photographers. A draw is the way it seems to fall sideways on a windy day.

For an occasion to play with shadow and light, the long summer days will provide what you are looking for among tall Sequoia trees and off massive rock formations. Frequent thunderstorms in summer present a chance to experiment in black and white. Fresh, brilliantly colored photos spring from summer storms and waterfalls alike.

One of the best things about taking photos in the park during fall is that most of the tourists have gone home. That opens up the perfect shot of Bridalveil Fall, Half Dome, and El Capitan in one photo from Tunnel View. Glacier Point, a popular location for photographing the valley is also more available this time of year.

The snowy wonderland of winter gives the park a whole new look. Snow does not last long on the valley floor, so you have to get there before it snows to get the best photos. One magical location is Sentinel Bridge, where you may be lucky enough to snap a reflection of Half Dome in the glassy surface of the Merced River.
