Moon Over Mount Clark
I was done photographing the sunset at Glacier Point. I was just standing there and one of the tourists asked me if I were waiting for the moon. Honestly, I forgot and I really had no intention of staying. I figured by the time the moon showed up, it would be completely dark. So I…

Sunset at Glacier Point
I had an opportunity to meet a local (Atwater) photographer and spend the whole day shooting and talking. I wanted to stick around town, maybe Hornitos, Lake Yosemite or San Luis NWR.

Sunset Pictures Over Mammoth Peak
On this trip I wanted to stay in the Tioga Pass area so I could photograph both sunrise and sunset. After I photographed sunrise, I spent the rest of the morning in the Sawmill Campground/Saddlebag area, and I’ll post a few images later. I went back to “my spot” and tried to get some sleep.…
