"Longing for Peace"

There are so many possible titles to attach to this image. This was taken last year while meeting with my photog friends Chris Harris, Leo Burkey and Ray Banfield at Tuolumne Meadows. We went to Olmstead Point for the sunset, but before then, I ventured out to climb one of the nearby granite domes to see what view I might find. Well, lookey here, Tenaya Lake nestled in a granite wonderland. Self portraits like this really can take me back. I can't wait for a return trip. This is where I find peace. We all need peace. Do you know where your peace waits?

Beautiful place and a nice picture; i really love mountains...and with them my peace lies!

Congrats!

Mark,

What a powerful photo!!!! I love it, yes I can see where you would find peace there. Very well done. Regards, Patsy

 

Pretty cool Mark, I've got to try and remember to get a self portrait on my next trip.

Hi Mark, what a beautiful spot.I find peace out in the woods and fields or by a babbling brook. I am so glad that we are able to enjoy nature. cher..

Yep, that's peace alright! My peaceful place varies, depending on the time of year, or the mood. But it's probably a tie between the high sierra in the summer, or the desert in the winter. I just wish I had enough time to get out on a 7-10 day trip. The mini weekend dashes hardly have the right effect.
