Merced River

South Fork of the Merced River
1920 1530 Liberty Thermionics

I’ve been preparing some pictures from a recent trip to Yosemite, we hadn’t been in several years and i brought a couple of different camera systems with me. I’d also planned to shoot some color film which isn’t something I usually do. Most color negative film uses a developing process called C-41. I’ve never done that at home before and…

Three Rocks
1920 1917 Liberty Thermionics

Sometimes you go into a shooting lull. It’s happened to me in the past but i don’t think to this degree. I’m starting too feel more motivated and in fact have a thanksgiving trip approaching where i hope to reengage. Until then please continue to enjoy (perhaps not the right word at this point) some more outtakes from this spring.

Stone in the Merced
1910 1920 Liberty Thermionics

I had a little accident a few weeks ago that left me with 2 broken arms. Seems i got into an argument with a car. He thought he was allowed to drive through the cross-walk while i was riding through it. Long story short – i lost and am now mending. It’s not really as bad as it sounds as…

The Merced River
1914 1920 Liberty Thermionics

I hope your not getting too bored of looking at the Merced! I’m getting down to the end here and will have to run a bunch of film soon. Some focus was lost over the summer – it should return here in the next few weeks. Servus.

El Capitan and the Merced River
1899 1920 Liberty Thermionics

We spent this past weekend in Yosemite and the river certainly didn’t flow like it did back in May when this picture was taken. The Merced was mostly idle and rather shallow. The only waterfall that showed even a wisp of water was Bridalveil Falls (see previous image). Up near Glacier Point there was no sign of moisture at all,…

Merced River: Surging Water
1918 1920 Liberty Thermionics

There are places that you can stand along the banks of the river where the trees and rocks can’t obscure your view of the river. If you ignore your peripheral vision and focus on what’s right in front of you the flowing river can take on new and different forms. This is what I tend to do when i’m shooting…

Snow Melt – Merced River
1896 1920 Liberty Thermionics

It’s hard to tell if rocks are 3 feet under water or 3 inches when the river is flowing in the springtime.
