A Peek Through My Lens

Upcoming Shoot – Yosemite

Tenaya Lake from Olmsted Point

I am soon to embark on a short 4 day trip with a few friends whom are all also photographers. Should be an interesting trip, with landscapes, granite cliffs, waterfalls, wildlife and lets hope some snow. Yosemite can be so incredible in the dead of winter with the changing weather and the natural lighting effects on the granite walls. The weather reports make it look like it should be fun weekend. Forecasts predict a 40% chance of rain and temperatures ranging from the mid 30’s to the high 40’s. I would prefer a little snow over the the rain and only for only a small part of the day of course. Yosemite is always fun to shoot as a storm is breaking up.

I will try and post pictures as soon as I can, I know in the past that I have had very spotty cell coverage in Yosemite so I don’t know if the first picture will go up during the trip or when I get home. I am sure I will be anxious to get pictures edited and posted.

With this trip I am hoping to try a few new things and get a few new looks to my images. I look forward to sharing the images and details of the trip with all of you here in the near future.

So my truck is loaded up with the ice chest, chains, flashlights, water, inverter, and other essentials. My batteries are charged and the camera cleaned all I have left to do is finish some laundry and pack my clothes.  Wishing everyone a fun and safe weekend.

    Thanks Luis, the snow didn’t arrive till the day we left. I am planning on heading back up there again in a week or two. Just to try and get a few more images. Maybe redo some of the stuff that I am not completely happy with from this last trip. There is lots of snow there now so I hope it can hold on till I get back, lol.

    I see that you had a fantastic journey! Looking at the image you’ve done there my heart feels with sorrow that I do not have such places around my location!.. Where is it? How far away from the place you live? Did you stay in the hotel or smth or were hitchiking?
