Reaching into the mist

This is an image I've been wanting to capture since my last visit to Yosemite.  I had noticed how ethereal the trees looked while on a drive out to Glacier Point.  Fortunately, this trip provided the perfect weather to create this shot.  I spent a wonderful couple of hours driving and walking among these trees.

Wild

On the way back from a rainy Glacier Point today, we encountered this little coyote.  He was quite happy to pose for me.

My happy place

Howdy all! I have neglected you all, and for that I apologize. I had some unexpected time off from work so we decided to take a family vacation to Yosemite. This truly is the happiest place on earth! My posting will probably be a bit sporadic, but I wanted to get something up today. I'm trying hard to take fewer pictures this time so I can take more thoughtful, considered images. This is taken with my iPhone about an hour before sunset.

Market Girl

This was taken in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia while I was walking around an open air market. The girl and her friend had been following me for a while, curious about what I was doing. Finally, she approached me and indicated through gestures that she wanted her picture taken. As soon as I started to take her picture, kids began gathering around me wanting to be a part of what was going on. They giggled and shouted while I took her picture. When she finally saw her image on the back of the camera she gave me a huge smile and and gestured that she was very appreciative. I got the feeling that she had never seen a picture of herself before. I felt grateful and honored that I could give that to her.

No lack of color

I'm on an urban kick lately. You don't have to go far to find interesting shaped and colors.

Blue sky and windows

This has to qualify as one of the lamest titles I've ever given to an image, but I just couldn't think of anything else. Anyway, I had fun taking it and I hope you enjoy it!
