Whenever I visit Yosemite, I try and make a short trip to Foresta, a small town area right off the Big Oak Flat Road in Yosemite. There are two settler barns in the area that are just amazing. Below is an image of the two barns and the meadow behind them that I took on […]

I know I’m late to the party on this one, but a very prominent image maker has recently died: Jerry Uelsmann. I was very sad to hear this news. Such an incredible person. You can read more about Mr. Uelsmann, who died on April 4, 2022, in the article below: Jerry Uelsmann For more information […]

Along the north cliffs of Yosemite Valley is an incredible rock formation called The Three Brothers. I really became aware of these granite beauties when I did a photo workshop with Michael Frye and since then have really been drawn to them as I drive through the valley. Below is an image of the Three […]

Below are three more images from my trip to Yosemite a week ago. The first two images are of the shoreline and rocks around the south fork of the Merced River, next to the cabin where I stay when I’m in Yosemite. Waking to this sight on Friday morning was amazing! The third is of […]

I just returned from a week in Yosemite and a quick drive through Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Friday morning I woke up to a surprise in Yosemite: SNOW!!! It snowed overnight and the whole park was a winter paradise! Below are two images of Crane Flats Meadows. I’ll post more images in the […]

The images below were taken from Dante’s View when I was in Death Valley in March. There was a small storm that went through the area the night before I arrived and dropped a small amount of snow on the higher elevation, which you can see in one of the images. Definitely a great trip […]

On my trip to Death Valley earlier this month, I took a nice walk along the Badwater Basin. This is a definite stop for anyone who visits Death Valley. It’s also the lowest elevation in North America at 282 ft. below sea level. Below are some images I took while there. The first image was […]

Photo below from Saturday morning at the beach. Interesting seeing all the types of rocks that wash up on the sand. Have a great week everyone!

There was no blog entry last weekend…because…I was in Death Valley! It was a sweltering 64 degrees Fahrenheit on Saturday and more brutal on Sunday (around 69 degrees Fahrenheit)! So miserable! 🙂 I’m just kidding! It was perfect weather!!! I spent Saturday night at the Stovepipe Wells motel which was nice. I was able to […]
