  • Photo of the Day: Bucky! by Bill Head

    Bill Head took this awesome picture of a fairly young buck who looks like he’s been packing on the pounds for winter. This guy better watch out or he stands a pretty good chance of ending up mounted on a wall somewhere. Deer season is just around the corner and he’s got a pretty nice…

  • Photo of the Day: Sky of Fire by Lassi Kurkijärvi

    Oh yes, Glacier Point is by far the best spot to watch the sun set in Yosemite. You can grab a couple ice creams, your favorite person and your camera and sit on the rocks and watch the sun turn the sky to fire. Great shot, Lassi. Photo by Lassi Kurkijärvi.

  • Photos of the Day: Fire and Rocks by Melissa Alcorn

    Melissa Alcorn sent me this series of images she captured last week while hiking in the park the day the rock fall took place behind the Ahwahnee and the Big Meadow fire got a little wild. I love the way you can see both events in the above photos. It’s like watching the San Francisco…

  • Photo of the Day: Rockscape by Tom Grubbe

    To try to keep with some normalcy amid all the fire stuff I decided to get back to posting a Photo of the Day. Today’s Photo of the Day is a beautiful shot of Lembert Dome and some glacial erratic captured by Tom Grubbe. If you’d like to see more of Tom’s photography be sure…

  • Photo of the Day: A Pictorial of Bridalveil Fall by Dgarvile

    Today’s Photo of the Day I found really interesting because the way it was post processed. If you look very closely at the large image it’s very painter-like which adds an interesting touch to the image. Nice job. Photo by dgavrile.

  • Photo of the Day: Sleeping Under the Stars by Dave Miller

    Dave Miller from Bay Area Outdoors, just got back from doing the North Dome loop and not only does he have a very good write up over on his blog but he took lots of beautiful photos and posted them to his Flickr account like today’s Photo of the Day. Head over to Dave’s blog…

  • Photo of the Day: Olmsted Point by Christopher Chan (with video)

    Today’s Photo of the Day is a beautiful shot of Olmsted Point from Christopher Chan. Christopher makes the most beautiful HDR images I’ve ever seen. Don’t believe me? Check out his photo stream. You thought his Yosemite photo was awesome you’ll flip over his seascapes (3 links there don’t miss ’em). He also published this…

  • Photo of the Day: A beautiful snowy Yosemite in black and white by Kurt Frieden

    Todays Photo of the Day is from Kurt Frieden but was actually taken back in February of 2006. Kurts picture is awesome and now almost impossible to imitate. You see the trees in the foreground were removed by the National Park Service last year to “expand” the view. Great shot, Kurt. Photo by Kurt Frieden.
