Staying with the theme of cool places I’d rather be than the 100 degree heat, today’s Photo of the Day is a great panorama by Mathew Winchester of Lembert Dome and Tuolumne Meadows. Awesome shot, Mathew. Photo by Mathew Winchester.

With how hot it’s been I want nothing more than to relax by a cool, clear mountain lake surrounded by snowy peaks. I guess that’s why I found today’s Photo of the Day from HighSierraCowboy so appealing. It also makes it evident to me that a) I haven’t been up to Ellery Lake in a…

Tonight’s Photo of the Day is one from a vantage point you’ve likely never seen nor will ever be able to experience. It is in fact from the top of the tower of the Ahwahnee. During last week’s stormy afternoons Nicole Charman from yosemite Satellite and TV happened to be up there fixing the satellite…

Lots of people come to Yosemite and leave with the same exact shot of Half Dome or Yosemite Falls that’s been taken a billion times. Sometimes it seems they should just hand people compact flash card already loaded with the photos. Nate Eaton has succeeded in capturing a different view of Yosemite Falls and that’s…

Today’s Photo of the Day is a beautiful shot from Tyler Westcott of El Capitan and clouds in black and white. This is an AWESOME shat and would look great hanging in any den. Hopefully Tyler will get this up in his Imagekind gallery so all of you that would like a print can purchase…

Today’s Photo of the Day is another really cool shot up Tenaya Canyon with Half Dome by our good friend, Robert Pearce. The storm clouds in this one look totally ominous and foreboding. Beautiful shot, Robert. Robert’s personal site is still under construction but if you like this shot then be sure to check out…

Today’s Photo of the Day is from our longtime friend Edie. Edie took this beautiful shot up Tenaya Canyon with Half Dome in the mid-ground from Sentinel Dome, one of my favorite places to shoot from. Edie would like to be with us but she’s currently freezing her butt off on the eastern side of…

Today’s Photo of the Day is a beautiful shot of Half Dome, the High Sierra, Nevada Fall and Little Yosemite Valley from Gary Denham. This is exactly the type of beautiful shot that makes me think Glacier Point is one of the most awesome places in the park to shoot at sunset. Beautiful shot, Gary.…
