  • Something Evil Lurks in Yosemite

    This is serioulsy THE most evil looking Yosemite photo I think I’ve ever seen. Nice job. Photo by Torens.

  • New Moon on Thursday Means Perfect Conditions for Night Photography

    Star trails over Half Dome make for a beautiful and rarely captured scene. Photo by Sathish J.. So starting tomorrow night and continuing for the next few night the moon will be new, meaning you won’t be able to see it. This also means its light won’t interfere if you want to take long exposures…

  • El Cap in 17 Gigapixels

    The view from Glacier Point in 17 Gigapixels is pretty cool but did you notice there’s a really cool view of El Capitan too? You can practically see what type of Cams the climbers are using. Nice!

  • Room with a View

    Except for the time you drank 2 Big Gulps, a Pepsi with lunch and a bottle of water in the car, have you ever seen a bathroom look THIS GOOD? Thomas Kinkade eat your heart out. Photo by Hamza Lakhani.

  • Beautiful Downpour in Tioga Pass

  • Karla with a K asks about Sunset Photography

    Karla wrote in to ask a question about my response to Primoz’s email. She asks, “Is Glacier point the best spot to observe/photograph sunsets? Where else would you recommend and what time for sunsets in mid-June?” Thanks for the email. It really depends what you want to see. Pretty much you want to try to…

  • Snow – You Have to See to Believe

    I really love the work Steven Bumgardner (@YosemiteSteve if you’re on Twitter) is doing on the Yosemite Nature Notes videos. The most recent title, Snow, is a BEAUTIFUL look at snow in Yosemite. Take a few minutes and watch. It’s GREAT video and it makes you wish you could have been there. By the way,…
