Welcome to visitors from Yosemite Blog

Loyd at Yosemite Blog wrote a very nice link to one of the photos on this site. Thanks Loyd… and welcome and hello to visitors to this site who came via his link.

Scroll down to see recently posted photos and stories here. Check out links in the sidebar for many more photographs.

My real photography site is G Dan Mitchell | Photography, so wander on over there if you get a chance. I post a new photo (nearly) every day at that site.

You’ll find lots of photos of Tuolumne, Yosemite, the Sierra, and points beyond. You can subscribe to RSS feeds at both sites if you are interested.

What? I wasn't the first? :-)

The black and white photo of Tenaya Lake I posted below no doubt looks a bit, uh, familiar – maybe because this spot has been photographed since the first people with cameras were there over 100 years ago. Oh, yes, and I hear some guy named Ansel took a nice shot there, too…

My friend Tom Clifton points to a picture he took from almost the same spot – I think you’ll enjoy it! (Thanks, Tom!)
