Yosemite - Day 1

After a busy August and September we got away for a photo holiday. We attended an event in Los Angeles on Saturday. From there we spent several days at one of our national treasures: Yosemite National Park.

Parts of four days were spent in or around the National Park. As you might imagine, a hard drive full of images were captured. Much to look through and share over the next few weeks.

We arrived the first afternoon by way of Wawona Road, which brings you into Yosemite Valley by way of the iconic Tunnel View approach. Here is one of my first images of the valley on our arrival.

Much more to come...

First Colors

The fall colors appeared suddenly this past weekend. Trees that were barely trending away from green on Friday afternoon were brilliant by Sunday.

The early sentinals like Sumac, Ashes, Walnuts are generally showing colors and will be gone quickly. There are a few "improved" maples that have turned, but the native versions aren't showing as of yet.

I was able to run out on Sunday evening and capture these images at a nearby city park. The conditions were perfect, as you can tell from the reflections. Enjoy!

This extends to the small colleges as well. I shot at the McPherson College vs. Bethel College game on Saturday and you saw these indications of support:
