Yosmite Nation Park

This rock formation was outside of the park. You can't really tell how big these rocks were in this picture.
But the trees on the top were full grown. .

I think my lens made the trees look as they were bending in.

I love the color of the dark red wood tree in the mist of the other trees in Yosemite park
