The Milky Way From Yosemite: CA Photos Of The Day

YOSEMITE, CA — The talented Samiksha Dani of Fremont shot these images of the Milky Way during her visit to Yosemite National Park.

The pictures were taken from Glacier Point during the new moon.

"Our cosmic home, the Milky Way galaxy, is amazing and mesmerizing," said her parent, Keyur Dani. "Some wonderful pictures."

We agree!
