I was supposed to go to Yosemite today but had to cancel. 🙁
Based on discussions on flickr which reminded me about the rockslide in Yosemite blocking 140, I thought others would find this tip useful:
It is simply a must to subscribe to Yosemite Blog before your trip out there to supplement your trip. Besides some wonderful photos by the owner and other contributers, there are updates about the weather and road conditions, hiking tips and discussions. For instance, did you know the cables to Half Dome have just been put up?
I was very humbled when Loyd Schutte choose this shot for a blog entry:
Yosemite Falls Trail, Yosemite National Park, California
Nikon D70, 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G, UV filter
f/11 at 1/20 second, 18mm (27mm), iso 200
If you compare it to many of his other choices, you can see he did a lot of charity. Some of them are really awesome, which is how I started to read his blog!
Here is a stitch I did recently from the same hike:
Yosemite Falls Overlook, Yosemite National Park, California
Nikon D70, Nikkor 12-24mm f/4G
5 exposures (1/400 – 1/250sec) @ f/9, iso 200, 12mm (18mm)
