So I've been working in Yosemite for the past 7 weeks so it's almost over unfortunately but it's been really fun. Last summer I worked in Environmental Management but this summer I'm working in Education. I've been pretty busy so this post won't be as constant as last year and I'm also living in Wawona throughout the entire week instead of living in Yosemite Valley for half the time which means I get a bit less photogenic valley time. I also don't have a personal vehicle which makes it difficult to get around. Here's a few shots I've got so far.

El Capitan Meadow

Taft Point Trail

Moonbow

Swinging Bridge in Wawona

Jeffery Pine on Sentinel Dome

Sunset on Sentinel Dome

My Intern and Supervisor Homies strolling down Sentinel Dome

Full Moon from Sentinel Dome

Another Sentinel Dome Sunset

Swinging Bridge the night before the Full Moon

Sentinel Dome again

And Sentinel Dome again

Sentinel is one of my favorite hikes. I've hiked it and skied it

Great variety of pictures too.

Love the lighting for "Jeffery Pine on Sentinel Dome". Is that natural or flash?

Thanks for the compliments everyone. The Jeffery Pine on Sentinel Dome picture was light painted with a headlamp (or flashlight). The angle was from the left side of the camera if I remember correctly.

I hiked up to El Capitan last weekend and here is what I woke up to.

This Saturday I did a 22 mile hike in one day to Lyell Glacier

Like the last one. Can you lighten the foreground a bit? That'd make it killer

xelanil · Jul-30-2012, 03:49 PM #12

Thanks much, I like it.

Fabulous thread. You're living the dream, man. Thanks so much for sharing these.

Excellent shots! I really like the "Moonbow" image with the Big Dipper in it... Keep up the great work!
