While You Were Sleeping - Yosemite National Park

High in the Sierra Nevada while you were sleeping I was dreaming of a rainbow sky filled with more worlds than could be counted the Milky Way stretched across the sky high above Tenaya Lake in Yosemite National Park. On occasion a lone car would light the tops of the pines revealing their deep forest greens and illuminating the granite surrounding the lake. But most the time the sky provided all the light you could need. On a moonless night the stars seem incredibly bright and the edges of the towering peaks become obvious. Oh the horizon a bit a light pollution rises into the sky from city lights of the Central Valley. The likely glow from Fresno street lights.
