  • Photo of the Day: Yosemite Falls at Night by Sean Walsh

    Sean Walsh sent in this really cool pic of Upper Yosemite Fall at night he took last April and I must say, I really like it. Sean says the trees were lit by the ground lights so I’m guessing those are the ones outside Yosemite Lodge. They add a nice contrast to the shot. Nicely…

  • Photo of the Day: Yosemite by Kyle Roderick

    I love summer in California. Unfortunately it’s not the most interesting time to be a nature photographer. The skies are blue and listless. The light is often overly bright and washes everything out. It’s great for a suntan but lousy for photography. This photo, however, is the exception. I stumbled across this one while reviewing…

  • Photo of the Day: Half Dome by Edie Howe-Byrne

    OMG It’s snowing in Yosemite! Just kidding. HAHAHAHA! Today’s Photo of the Day is another one of Edie’s beautiful shots, this one from early this year when Half Dome was blanketed in snow. Very beautiful, Edie. You can find more of Edie’s beautiful shots and some of her writings over on her blog at http://www.littleredtent.net/blog.…

  • Photo of the Day: Last Star and First Light at Vogelsang by Edie Howe-Byrne

    It’s been a long time since I posted one of Edie’s photos as Photo of the Day and it’s not that her photos aren’t the best, it’s that I felt it wasn’t fair if I made her photo Photo of the Day EVERYDAY. When I saw this photo though I knew it HAD to be…

  • Spend a Day With a Pro Photographer and Get Free Schwag

    Everyone knows Scott Bourne who was a frequent quest on Mac Break Weekly during the iPhone announcements and most know he’s a professional photographer who has moved into the realm of podcasting. Well Scott is having a really cool contest and the prize is your chance to photograph a national park (Yosemite of course!) with…

  • Photo of the Day: Bridalveil Fall by Jon Shiu

    Jon Shiu sent in a couple of beautiful pictures for me to post but I lost them in the deluge of email until just now. The sad part is Jon was selling them at the Yosemite Renaissance Auction. What makes Jon’s photos fantastic isn’t just the image but the work he put into making the…

  • Photo of the Day: Taft Point by Joe S.

    Well I finally have some free time to find and get a Photo of the Day up and let me tell you, it was hard to pick which one. There are so many beautiful shots showing up recently it’s not an easy task. Today’s shot comes to us from Joe S. (aka my.name.is.joe) on Flickr…

  • Photo of the Day Double-Shot: Milky Way by Don Van Dyke and Exit Yosemite by Fintlandia

    Since I got busy with the kids last night and before I knew it bedtime was here I didn’t get to post a Photo of the Day. To make up for it I’ve got 2 awesome photos today. The first photo comes to us from Don Van Dyke who took this really awesome shot of…

  • Photo of the Day: 40% of Leaning Tower to Go! by Maria Ly

    I’ve been watching Maria’s climbing escapades via her photostream on Flickr for some time now and have been very impressed with her climbing prowess and ability to take great photos while doing it. For some reason this photo stuck out to me today and I knew it was the perfect Photo of the Day. Very…

  • Sunset and Clouds by Robert Pearce

    Back from it’s short hiatus (we suspect it went to Chile where it’s much cooler this time of the year) today’s Photo of the Day comes to us from someone who’s photos have become a regular attraction around here Robert Pearce aka. Sierrasolstice on Flickr. Robert hopes someday to make photography his career but right…
