One day in early July 1861, Carleton Watkins set up his cumbersome camera along the Merced River and aimed it eastward up the Yosemite Valley toward Tasayac, or Half Dome, a peak that towered a half mile above the valley floor. In that instant, Watkins captured for the first time what millions of park visitors would subsequently shoot from that same vantage point.
