Mirror Lake

Mirror Lake

On the first day in Yosemite, we were driven around to the three main attractions in the national park - Half Dome, Bridalveil Falls & Yosemite Falls. We got off the bus to take photos and then were herded back onto the bus to head to the next destination. Trying to get snap happy tourists back onto a bus must be as difficult as herding cats.

The funny thing I've noticed about tourists is that if one person starts aiming a camera in one direction, others will often follow and do the same. For example, I was gazing at a very tall tree and then some people mentioned that it must be a giant sequoia tree. Actually, it was just a tall tree, but it wasn't a sequoia. Give it a try sometime if you want to have some fun with tourists. Just stand somewhere and aim your camera somewhere. People will be curious to find out what you're looking at.
