Yosemite, USA<br />
EDGE OF<br />
THE WORLD<br />

Rising almost 1,500m above Yosemite<br />
Valley and 2,700m above sea level, Half<br />
Dome is a California icon. <strong>The</strong> granite<br />
formation at the eastern end of the valley<br />
is the summit of a legendary hiking route<br />
which, until a couple of years ago, was just<br />
an item on photographer Emilio Maglione-<br />
Fulco’s bucket list. When he finally got the<br />
chance to hike it, he reached its peak at first<br />
light, just as the sun began to illuminate the<br />
valley. <strong>The</strong> photographer’s gaze was drawn<br />
to this little diving board of a rock – “a small<br />
outcropping far from the classic photo-op”<br />
– where he captured his companion, fellow<br />
snapper Justin Mayers, walking to the edge.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> way it cantilevered over the void<br />
allowed us to showcase the immensity of<br />
the rock face,” says Maglione-Fulco. “Only<br />
Yosemite is capable of making one feel<br />
such an awe-inspiring sense of scale.”<br />
