YNP – California Falls
September 9, 2007
About a mile and a half past Glen Aulin is California Falls, the first of 3 sets of water falls. As the water level is relatively low it’s pretty easy to walk right up to the water’s edge. During the spring time i can only imagine how much more water comes through there – all […]

Mountain Stream No. 1
January 18, 2006
On the way back down the mountain we stopped for a little while at a mountain stream. I nearly fell in about 4 times trying to stand in such a way that permitted focusing. I made it out with dry feet and all cameras intact. I did manage to nearly fall down a slippery hill […]

Joshua Tree
March 21, 2007
Everything is so barren, but at the same time it’s hard to find a place without more joshua trees in the background. I didn’t see too many of them but there are these small chipmunk/squirrel creatures running around in the desert. (I just looked them up and the internet claims that they’re “California Chipmunks”) Everywhere […]

Bridalveil Runoff
June 6, 2008
Another part of the runoff of Bridalveil falls. Towards the end of the summer this is a large rocky area that you can climb all over and even all the way up to where the falls break, in the winter/spring it’s hard to navigate without getting a case of wet-foot, or pick up a clinger. […]

Squaw Creek, MT

A frozen creek in Montana. (People actually stand out in the middle of this creek wearing waders and fish for hours on end.)

The Marriage of Jen and Deneb – From the Top Looking Down
August 29, 2005
After a little vacation i’ll give this another shot. It’s been quite some time since my last post. Lots has happened? nothing’s happened? i don’t know. I started this little photo project limiting myself to these digital pictures. Turns out I lost interest in the digital picture thing pretty quickly. Rather, i really like my […]

Down along Route 1 – Just North of Big Sur
March 23, 2007
I’m not done with my Joshua Tree stuff yet, i just had to change subjects for a day or so so i can catch up with my scanning. On the way back up the coast on Sunday we stopped for a few minutes at an overlook to Bixby Bridge right as the sun was setting […]

Bridal Veil Falls Runoff – Yosemite National Park
February 8, 2006
I got to spend this weekend lazing around Yosemite, one of my most favorite past-times, even over Super-Bowl weekend. Of course living here on the west coast the super-bowl starts at about 3pm. Since we didn’t get on the road until about 2:30pm and there were about 180 miles of asphalt between the park and […]

Sierra Nevada Mountains – PG&E Dam on the Feather River
July 1, 2007
Diving along the Feather River is a pretty cool experience. You can follow it for quite a while, 50+ miles if i remember correctly. The road trades bridges with a railroad line that runs parallel, sometimes above, sometimes below. There are a bunch of dirt roads that allow access to the railroad tracks, and even […]

Portrait Time – Golden Gate Park
January 18, 2006
Monday afternoon Jason, Wendy and I trekked to Golden Gate Park to do a little photography. We were searching for something we just couldn’t find and finally decided to just set up shop and see what happened in the botanical gardens. Jason’s 8×10 garnered the most looks (as it should). It’s hard to tell if […]

Stream – Redwood National Forest
April 17, 2007
I started reading the biography of Eadweard Muybridge more than a year ago. Since then i’ve been trying to shoot more waterfalls and running water and the like – trying to make pictures look like the way they used to (without the boiling mercury and all that). See… Muybridge was the man who made it […]

Leanne next to one of the Redwoods
April 18, 2007
The redwood groves up in the Redwood National Park are even more impressive than the ones around San Francisco. This one was one of the larger ones that we saw that day, right along the banks of the Eel River.

Climbers – Yosemite High Country
September 19, 2006
We stayed up at one of the Yosemite High Camps this past weekend – May Lake to be specific – highly recommended. Tour buses and the tourists that go along with them never really make it out of the vally. At 10,000 feet they’re a distant memory. The camp was great and there are 4 […]

Burney Creek – Burney State Park
August 6, 2007
Just past the waterfall a stream forms and carries through the valley off into the woods. I climbed out into what became a precarious position and made this image. The total exposure was about 1 minute with a light(ish) neutral density over the lens. If it weren’t for the mosquitoes i could have stayed out […]

Birch Trees – Redwood National Park
April 16, 2007
Sorry for the long delay – i’m just getting through a (relative) truck-load of film from the past few weekends. At the end of march we ventured up north to Eureka, CA (and Arcata, Crescent City and various points in between). After getting off of the highway to go check out an Indian Casino (it’s […]

The Merced River
September 21, 2008
I hope your not getting too bored of looking at the Merced! I’m getting down to the end here and will have to run a bunch of film soon. Some focus was lost over the summer – it should return here in the next few weeks. Servus.

The Belly of the Brooklyn Bridge
February 13, 2008
Standing underneath the Brooklyn Bridge is like standing underneath a lot of other bridges in that i always expect a 4×8 foot sheet of 1″ thick steel to break free and come crashing down… (that’s cause i live in san francisco and that’s happened a few times around here). you might figure that from that […]

Above Berkeley CA: Tilden State Park
May 1, 2005
Beautiful Tilden State Park, just about 500 yards from Inspiration Point I don’t know what the deal is with inspiration point. It’s great and all don’t get me wrong, there are rolling meadows as far as the eye can see, and even cows – but there’s not really any room to take it in. You […]

Snow Melt – Merced River

It’s hard to tell if rocks are 3 feet under water or 3 inches when the river is flowing in the springtime.

Mt Lassen State Park – Kings Creek
July 8, 2007
We took a hike down Kings Creek in Mt Lassen State Park. We were there during the last weekend in May and there was still snow all over the place with several roads through the park closed down. I made this picture by jumping over the stream and onto a small island in the middle. […]
