  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.

  6. “Subalpine Meadow, Evening Light” — A ridge rises above a subalpine meadow and forest, Yosemite.

    This is another “quiet” photograph — no brilliant colors, not really an iconic location. It simply captures, I hope, something of the feeling of being in the High Sierra as the day winds down, the light warms as sunset approaches, and begin to stretch across the landscape. It is a beautiful time of day — everything slows down, it gets quieter as people go to camp for dinner.

  11. Because EVERTHING We the People Have is For Sale so he adds more #billions - #Trump admin has proposed #selling part of #Yosemite National Park in #California to a private #developer, according to federal officials. Las Vegas-based company wants 2 build a road and develop two 40-acre parcels near the park, according to documents submitted to #Congress this year & reviewed by The NYT. #corruption #billionaires #conservation #nationalparks #wildlife #law #maga #politics #environment #parks

  12. Developing the #land would require #environmental #destruction that runs counter to the #NationalPark Service’s mission, he said.
    
“They need to be prioritizing #conservation, not helping to bulldoze land, cut down towering #trees & construct a luxury development that’s going to harm #Yosemite,” Desai said.

    Yosemite is the fifth-most-visited #NationalPark, & is renowned for its #mountains & #waterfalls.

  13. "Halfway up The Nose of El Capitan is one of the wildest pendulums in existence"--it's called the King Swing! I shot this way back in 2015 with my Sony a6000 (a CMOS sensor camera) and a 70-200mm lens for a 35mm equivalent of 300mm. Still, it's cropped waaay in. The climber's goal is seen in the fourth frame, grabbing onto a crack in the rock face so they may continue their climb up The Nose and to the top.
