Yosemite Valley: waterfalls, moonbow, and views
Waterfalls of Yosemite Valley
Yosemite National Park is home to some of the world’s tallest and most beautiful waterfalls, and the scenery is simply breathtaking. The most famous falls are Bridalveil Fall, Sentinel Fall, Yosemite Falls, Vernal Fall, and Nevada Fall.
Moonbow in Yosemite Valley
A moonbow is a rare and beautiful natural wonder that occurs when the moonlight hits water droplets in the air. Yosemite Falls is one of the best places in the world to photograph them. They are located in Yosemite National Park in California and offer a unique and stunning setting for capturing this ethereal phenomenon. To capture it, you need the set-up to be just right - the skies have to be clear, and the moon has to be around its fullest, but it can’t be hidden behind the Sentinel Dome on the opposite side of the valley. These circumstances are hard to meet, so it appears only a few times per year - but it is always a spectacular view.
Views of the Yosemite Valley
There are numerous viewpoints to observe the beauty of the Yosemite Valley. The most famous are vistas on El Captain, Eagle Peak, Glacier Point, and of course, the view from Half Dome. However, the most beautiful sight is located at the southern entrance to the valley - the so-called Tunnel View.
