I’d been meaning to go back and visit Manzanar for a while now, so when I went up to Yosemite this October via HWY 395, I stopped at the historic site. I was too early to go into the visitor’s center, but I did walk around the area and checked out a number of buildings. […]

I’ve been back for a few days now from Yosemite and Sequoia National Park and have to say it was a great trip!!! There are a lot of images to go through and need to update my galleries really bad. Hopefully I can get that done in the next couple of weeks. Below are two […]

Below are some images I took early Monday and Tuesday morning after the weekend festival. It was good to take images at […]

Below is an image I took in June this year of the snow covered peaks around Tuolumne Meadows in the Yosemite high country. Looking forward to seeing them again when I go up into the area in the fall. Have a great week everyone!

Tuolumne Meadows in the Yosemite high country is always amazing, but it’s really at its best in the late afternoon into the evening. That’s when the deer come out into the meadows and graze. It’s such a peaceful time to be in that area. Below is an image I took in Tuolumne Meadows in June […]
