Yosemite Valley – The Semi-Frozen Merced River
1913 1920 Liberty Thermionics

I started putting up images from our brief trip to New York about a month ago (i can’t really believe it’s been a month of New York but it has – or will be in 2 days). Over the course of that month i made two different trips – one to Yosemite Valley and another to Montana. Both involved snow,…

Fallen Tree, Make Lake – Burl Detail
1880 1920 Liberty Thermionics

We just got back from a short trip to Austin, TX. Home of live music (lots of it), bats (didn’t see even one of em) and bbq (saw lots of that). I have a few frames from my one attempt at shooting the famous bats at sunset. In the end there were no bats, but i did get to watch…

May Lake – Sunday Morning (Take II)
1896 1920 Liberty Thermionics

What would a trip to May Lake be without some time sitting by the side of the lake? I figured this would be a good one to put up as we reached the 200th image. I don’t usually pay too much attention to the picture counts and site traffic and all that jazz but i got curious a couple of…

Tenaya Lake From Mt. Hoffman
1915 1920 Liberty Thermionics

The scale of things at elevation in the clear mountain air has a way of playing tricks with your perception of distance. Tenaya lake is at least 6 miles away from where we were standing although it looked like it was just 100 yards.

Half Dome from Mt. Hoffman
1920 1913 Liberty Thermionics

This is the first time that i’ve posted a picture of half-dome where there is land visible all around it. See usually what you see above half-dome is sky. I spent a few minutes looking around on google images and flickr and i could only come up with a couple. The reason for this is because this is the first…

Fallen Tree Stump near May Lake – YNP
1898 1920 Liberty Thermionics

This is the stump of a fallen tree, the part that when the tree was healthy and living was facing directly downwards. The size of it is immense. I remember last year joking that it would make a great fireplace mantle as it’s about 12 feet wide and 8 feet tall. The complexity of the root structure is what drew…

May Lake
1917 1920 Liberty Thermionics

This past weekend we got to visit the Lay Lake high sierra camp again. Like last year (somehow) we ended up being there over the final weekend of the season. Everyone who works there is about to end their season and go off and do other things – they celebrate by having even fancier than normal meals complete with bottles…

Tuolumne River – (one more!)
1920 1919 Liberty Thermionics

We just got back from the trip and I’ve got a whole mess of film to develop. For now – here’s one more from around Glen Aulin. I’ll be working on the film this week. Also there’s some stuff from the east coast i’ve been sitting on from this summer. New Jersey – Wildwood even (look out!)

Tuolumne River… Back in the hills
1897 1920 Liberty Thermionics

On the way back out to the meadow from Glen Aulin we made a short detour to check out Devil’s Postpile. I chose not to check out the Postpile and watch everyone’s gear as they took the short hike off-trail (aka: eat a clif bar, drink some water and climb down the rocks to shoot pictures of the river) The…
