Below is another image I took my first night at Tunnel View in Yosemite in June. I’m still trying to figure out how to post-process images for astrophotography, so it may take me a while to get it exactly right. However I do like this one. Another image below I took along the Merced River […]
First Night Of Astrophotography
My first night in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in June was (of course) in Yosemite! I arrived at Tunnel View at around 2am and quickly setup my tripod. Wouldn’t you know I was the only person in the area except for one RV that was tucked way in the back of the parking area. I […]
Having Lunch Along The Dana Fork Of The Tuolumne River
The image below shows one of my favorite places to stop and have a small lunch at in the Yosemite high country. The area is along the Dana Fork of the Tuolumne River. I’ve posted images before of this area, but this one image was taken on my last visit to the park in June […]
Returning From Hiking, Fun, And Photography In The Sierra
I returned Tuesday night last week from a good four days in the Sierra Nevada, including Yosemite! I did two nights of astrophotography which was really great! The Milky Way was high in the sky and looked incredible. I’m in the process of working on the night images in Lightroom and will post them as […]
Definitely Having Fun With Black And White
Below is another image from Tunnel View from October 2025. This one is a vertical shot. I’m showing both color and black and white versions. I still seem to prefer the black and white one. Which one do you like? Creeping up on Mammoth and Yosemite time! Looking forward to seeing the Eastern Sierra in […]
Tunnel View In Black And White
It’s nice when you get an image that you struggle with in color and pull it into black and white and it makes it much more appealing. Below is an image of Tunnel View I took in October of 2025 that seemed to look better in black and white. Closing in on days I’ll be […]
Mountains And Lake In The High Country
Below is an image I took in the high country of the Sierra Nevada in October 2025. Looking forward to venturing out into the beauty again really soon! Have a great week everyone!
Tenaya Lake After A Storm
Below is an image I took of Tenaya Lake in the Yosemite high country in October last year. I love when storms roll through the high country and leave clearing storm clouds! It makes the area much more interesting. I’m going up to the Eastern Sierra and Yosemite within a month. Looking forward to see […]
Open Meadow In The Yosemite High Country
Right inside the east entrance of Yosemite is the most amazing meadow. You can’t miss it as you drive west into Yosemite. I’m always in awe of this area. Below is an image of the meadow. I never grow tired of seeing it every year! I’m looking forward to getting up to Yosemite fairly soon. […]
Rambunctious Ravens
Last October, while in Yosemite, I drove up the Big Oak Flat Road from Yosemite Valley to connect to Tioga Pass and the high country. I pulled over into a turnout to check out some rock climbers when two ravens landed on the retaining wall next to me. They were very friends…most likely wanting food. […]
