  • Photo of the Day: En route Yosemite by Sreevishnu B S

    Today’s Photo of the Day is actually not very far from where I live and a great example what California is like right now: dry. Very, VERY dry. One errant spark and it’s all over. Remember, if you’re headed up to Yosemite use only approved fire pits and be careful with your fires. It’s really…

  • Photo of the Day: Tuolumne Meadows by Sathish J

    Today’s Photo of the Day is a beautiful shot of Lembert Dome in Tuolumne Meadows by Sathish J on Flickr. Here is what Sathish had to say about his photo: “Another gem in Yosemite is the Tuolumne Meadows and the Tioga Pass Area. Not oft visited by the populace jostling for space in the crowded…

  • And the Winner Is

    Before I announce the winner of this months Flickr Pro contest I’d like to thank everyone who entered and especially those who sent in photos along with their entries. I figured when I started this contest there’d be a couple entrants but it has exceeded my wildest expectations. Also don’t give up hope. I’m going…

  • Photo of the Day: Cathedral Peak by Edie Howe-Byrne

    I try not to post every one of Edie’s photos so that everyone can get a fair chance at having a Photo of the Day but when you see a shot as beautiful as this all rules go out the window. THIS is a great shot Edie. VERY nicely done. Photo by Edie Howe-Byrne via…

  • Photo of the Day: Yosemite Falls in Winter by Robert Pearce

    Today’s Photo of the Day is from one of the contest entrants Robert Pearce, aka Sierrasolstice on Flickr. You may remember I put up one of Robert’s beautiful photos a couple of days ago as Photo of the Day then Robert put up this really great shot. Nicely done Robert. Photo by Robert Pearce via…

  • Photo of the Day: Vernal Fall Partial View by Kit Ng

    Because it’s still 80 million degrees outside and the smoke from the fires is making me miserable here’s another great shot to help cool you down. This refreshing vista of Vernal Fall comes to us from Kit Ng. Awesome shot! Photo by Kit Ng via Flickr.

  • Photo of the Day: Yosemite Winter by Sierrasolstice

    With temperatures over 110 where I live I thought a nice picture of Yosemite covered in snow would help cool things down. Here’s a really cool (all puns intended) shot from Sierrasolstice of a snowy Yosemite Valley from a couple years back. Photo by Sierrasolstice via Flickr.

  • Photo of the Day: Yosemite Winter by Kevin

    Today’s Photo of the Day, Yosemite Winter, was sent in by reader Kevin when he entered the contest to win a free Flickr Pro account. Great shot Kevin. Thanks for sending it in. If you’d like a free Flickr Pro Account that gets you increased storage, upload amounts and you don’t see any of the…

    Last month I started a contest where one lucky Yosemite Blog reader gets a Pro account at Flickr for a year (a $25 value). I’d like to keep this contest going BUT…I don’t know who to give it to. So about the 15th I’m going to hold a drawing and one lucky YB reader will…
