Half dome is one of the most (over) photographer scenes in the world. You have brought a different view to it, bravo.

But not different enough: why the hell not shoot the other half? Nobody does.

So you go shoot it, and then we'll all rave about the photos. Sheesh.

It does!

It's all that rubble at the foot of the remaining half.

Rob,

Yes, the other side of Half Dome has been photographed and there's at least one photo of "Full Dome" by Jerry Ulesmann. Ulesmann went to teach at the Ansel Adams workshop back in the early 1970s. After looking all around he saw that Ansel got all the good shots already and he decided to create two new ones, "Full Dome" was one, the other was Ansel's face on the side of El Capitan.

Here's a link to the photo of Full Dome: http://butdoesitfloat.com/Quest-of-Continual-Becoming

Clearly, this post has been glaciated down to its current location from the Moral Highgrounds; it really belongs in the ethical heaven of photographic integrity being discussed elsewhere in LuLa.
