I shot this last summer over Fourth of July weekend. We hiked up and saw Indian Rock (the only natural arch in Yosemite), then kept moving forward for a campsite around North Dome. Upon waking in the morning, pink and purple colors lined the inside of my tent. I stuck my head outside and saw these massive beautiful clouds. Sleep had left he building and excitement is now flowing through my veins. I quickly grabbed my camera and tripod and ran down to a vantage point I spotted the night before. This was the first print that I printed for myself, and still it's one of my top 3 favorites I've shot.

I am a local here in, I have been living and working in Yosemite Valley for almost 5 years now! If you would like to see more of my Yosemite photography, swing by my website rjfranklin.com or check out my IG @franklinsteinnn! Thank you!
