  • Photo Video of the Day: When Tree Meets Car by Steven Bumgardner

    @YosemiteSteve (aka Steven Bumgardner from Yosemite Nature Notes) tweeted this tonight and I knew it had to be Photo Video of the Day. It’s not actually in Yosemite but you can’t help but laugh at the poor guys rotten luck of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Great video, Steven.

  • Photo of the Day: Lower Yosemite Fall by Jon Shiu

    Today’s Photo of the Day is a beautiful shot by Jon Shiu of Lower Yosemite Fall. Jon took the photo with a plastic toy camera with medium format roll film, printed in the darkroom and sepia toned. Pretty cool, eh? What’s also cool is it’s Jon’s entry into the Yosemite Renaissance. For the uninitiated, the…
