  1. “Tuolumne River, Dusk” — Dusk light on the Tuolumne River and Meadow, Lembert Dome, and the Sierra crest.

    Photographing in the morning and evening twilight can be a bit of a crapshoot. The light can be soft yet intensely colorful… or it can simply fade away to gray. Familiarity with the patterns of clouds and light can improve the odds, but you still have to head out there and take advantage of whatever happens. That was my plan on this late-August evening when thin clouds stretched across the sky, presenting the possibility of colorful light.

  2. Annie Palmer reports on a proposed Yosemite land swap that could grant private developers direct access to the national park. The Interior Department is currently in discussions with Kingsbarn Realty Capital to exchange public interests for an access road near Hazel Green Ranch, while conservation groups warn this move compromises established protections. Trading irreplaceable federal land for private gain sets a concerning precedent over prioritizing the public good and wilderness preservation. See the full report at the link below. Excellent work by Annie Palmer on this investigation.cnbc.com/2026/08/29/trump-yose #Yosemite #PublicLands #Conservation

  4. Yosemite Falls 3724

    Majestic waterfalls cascade down a steep cliff face amidst a rugged mountainous landscape that is Yosemite Valley. Bare deciduous trees lit by a break in the clouds line the tranquil Merced River flowing in the foreground, reflective of the season. The clouds in the sky threaten rain or snow as they pass over Yosemite Point.

  5. Rainbow Mist at Yosemite Falls

    I been to Yosemite many times and it never disappoints. I captured this in Mid-February after trying to catch a sunrise at Tunnel View. By the time we made it back to the valley it was only a few minutes until the sun came up behind Half Dome and created a perfect angle to create this beautiful rainbow half way up Yosemite Falls.

  6. Yosemite Falls Digital Watercolor

    One of my favorite views in the country when the falls are running in the early spring.
    As the snow melts in the higher elevations the water filters into Yosemite Creek high above the valley floor. As it makes it's way to the edge of the valley and makes it's spectacular drop to the valley floor.

  7. Yosemite Falls in Black and White

    Yosemite Valley and Yosemite Falls is viewed by more than 3 million people every year. Most visit the park during the spring, summer and fall, while relatively few visit during the winter.
    It can be cold, snowy, rainy or warm and sunny all depending on what is blowing in off of the Pacific 4 to 8 hours earlier.

  9. Winter at Yosemite Falls

    As I've written about in many of my images Yosemite National Park is truly one of the most magical places on earth in my humble opinion. Yosemite Falls s the center piece of Yosemite Valley being the tallest waterfall in North America and the 2nd tallest in the world.
    This image was captured after a late winter storm passed through the valley.

  10. Lower Yosemite Falls Through The Trees.

    One of my favorite places to be is sitting below Yosemite Falls. The waterfall is so majestic and powerful and the water runs clean and cool.
    This image captures the lower portion of the middle falls and the complete lower falls as shot from the path leading up to the bottom of the waterfall.

    Yosemite Falls is a majestic waterfall that cascades down from Yosemite's high country 2,425 feet to the valley below in three stages. The upper falls drops 1,430 feet with rugged cliffs and steep rocky walls.
    The middle falls, not seen here, drops another 675 feet.
    Finally the lower falls the final 320 feet to the valley floor.

  13. Yosemite Falls In The Summer

    My favorite place on the Planet, Yosemite National Park. I've been traveling to Yosemite at least once a year and sometimes 3 or 4. The one thing I hadn't done in a long time is go to Yosemite in the middle of the summer. After I took this trip I vowed that I would never go into the valley during the summer again.

  14. Spring Flood, Upper Yosemite Fall. © Copyright 2023 G Dan Mitchell.

    Upper Yosemite Fall near the peak of the 2023 spring snowmelt runoff.

    After many years photographing this Valley and seeing photographs others have made there, I often look for subjects other than the iconic waterfalls, domes and peaks. It isn’t that I’m not interested — it is just that I’m not sure the world needs (yet) another straight-on photograph of “that thing” in the same, familiar light. So, despite the fact that the flow over the waterfalls was near historic levels during my late-May visit, I didn’t make many waterfall photographs. But I did make this one.
