  2. “Alpine Lake, Mirrored Reflection” — Cliff wall mirrored in an alpine lake, Sequoia National Park.

    There’s a story and a lesson connected with this photograph. Explaining may take a bit longer than usual. (I urge/invite you to click through and read the whole thing — and I’ll be interested in your comments.) I’ll start with the subject though. Years ago (I’ll reveal how many years below) I was on a trans-Sierra pack trip of over a week’s length with a group of backcountry friends. I had walked this route years before this trip, and there were a few places that I specifically wanted to photograph again, especially this lake. I stopped there long enough to make a few careful photographs, including one of my favorites. (That one also comes with a bit of a story and lesson.)…more: gdanmitchell.com/2026/08/12/al

  7. From the archive — with a twist: “Alpine Lake, Mirrored Reflection” — Cliff wall mirrored in a rockbound alpine lake, Sequoia NP.

    gdanmitchell.com/2008/08/15/pr

    The "twist" is that I have reinterpreted this photograph in monochrome.

  21. RE: mstdn.social/@32bitkid/1170044

    Want to make your own Sierra SCI0 inspired postcards?

    Well, you are in luck! I just published the CLI tool that I use to create these. The underlying parsing and drawing libraries are also available, so you can adapt them to whatever you like.

    Enjoy!

  30. I completed Space Quest 1, but purposefully left the important data cartridge back on Kerona so I would get the "bad ending". I was surprised that the only difference was an extra line which is not shown: "The Star Generator technology is safe inside the Data Cartridge. Now, a new Star Generator can be built and can carry out its original task"

    The evidence of this difference is shown in the LOGIC file logic.64.
