YNP: On top of Yosemite Falls
April 28, 2005
This is what Yosemite looks like at the top. My little GPS thingy said we were at 6666.something feet +/-26 feet. If you look carefully in the background of this picture you can see evidence that we weren’t the only people to make it to the top. In fact there were a variety of people […]

Superfine
February 17, 2008
I was going for something here that didn’t work out exactly the way i planned. Instead of getting a couple of slightly blurred people walking past as i intended i was left with 2 ghostly legs and that’s about it. Not superfine if you ask me, but an interesting mistake (or that’s what i’m telling […]

Stone in the Merced
October 12, 2008
I had a little accident a few weeks ago that left me with 2 broken arms. Seems i got into an argument with a car. He thought he was allowed to drive through the cross-walk while i was riding through it. Long story short – i lost and am now mending. It’s not really as […]

Half Dome At Sunrise
May 3, 2007
The sun hit halfdome before almost anything else in the valley setting the scene for what turned into a spectacular morning of cloud modulation. (aka pictures…)

A gaggle of sailboats surrounded the Queen Mary as she sailed into the San Francisco Bay.

Snow Melt: The Merced River in Spring
May 20, 2008
Late last year I decided that i was going to participate in National Solo Photo Book Month an excellent project organized by Paul Butzi. I spent a good deal of time over the coming months brainstorming on topics and coming up with several ideas that i thought could be successful. What once had been a […]

The Queen Mary 2 Coming into San Francisco Bay
February 14, 2007
As we approached the bay on what was Super-Bowl Sunday (February 4, 2007) it was never more clear how much a professional sports town San Francisco wasn’t. The ship was due to enter the bay at about the same time as kickoff of the national football demonstration and there were at least 10,000 people standing […]

Queen Mary 2 headed towards port
March 6, 2007
That ferry in the foreground is normally one of the largest ships in the bay (aside from the freighters that come and go all day long). The Queen Mary 2 makes it look like a toy.

Trinidad Lost Coast – Looking North
January 17, 2008
It’s right around Trinidad on the way up the California coast where there starts to be large rock formations out in the ocean. I think it’s one of the most spectacular things about this part of the coast. This eventually winds its way up the coast into Oregon and on to Washington. This particular view […]

Humboldt Redwood State Park
January 22, 2008
I posted two of these shots from the Humboldt Redwood State Park. This is one of my favorite state parks in California – not that i’ve been able to visit all of them, but i’m pretty sure that if i was able to this would still be at the top of the list. If you’ve […]

Santa Cruz Beach
May 8, 2005
It’s unclear why they have these little life-guard huts out there as there wasn’t a life-guard in sight, and it was a sunny Saturday. The Santa Cruz Boardwalk is a strange place. It’s like a little bit of New Jersey, but on the California coast. And I’m not talking about the funnel-cake. It must be […]

Cemetery – Virginia City, NV
April 22, 2006
This is a spooky place during the day – i can’t imagine what it would be like at night. This cemetery houses the graves of people from the area that were around for the Gold Rush. Many of the tombstones are from the 1800s, some of the most worn ones have been replaced somewhat recently […]

Leanne and Wendy at 3000
January 18, 2006
Leanne and Wendy also climbed out to the peak. The temperature shift from sea-level to 3000 feet is rather drastic. It was 60 or so back home and after driving just a few miles there was visible ice and cold cold wind if you stood in the shade. Below are links to 5 photographs from […]

Tuolumne River Rapids
August 15, 2007
Surprisingly – to me at least – the river was strong, even in mid-august. All along the trail from Tuolumne to Glen Aulin the river rolls down long slabs of granite creating rapids that stretch on for hundreds of yards. This spot was just below the Glen Aulin campground. The contrast of the 3 different […]

Zion National Park – The Virgin River
June 14, 2007
We ended up only really being able to stay in Zion for about a day due to some travel restrictions (such as being back at work Monday morning). Luckily we were able to extend our stay several hours longer by choosing to fly home early monday morning rather than Sunday night. Unfortunately that meant more […]

Mountain Top – YNP, CA
April 25, 2007
I didn’t know the name of this peak when i make the picture, and i still can’t figure it out. What struck me initially was the way the light was hitting it, strong on left but without casting a sharp shadow over the right. While the morning clouds and mist blew by the light changed […]
