    Night sky.
    Summertime.
    Mono Lake.
    Camera.

    Been there, with memories of doing something like that, Jeff Sullivan !

    I still think half (or more) of the fun of night photography over there is the quiet of the moments enjoyed while the camera minds itself, Jeff Sullivan .

    I remember a night session with a couple students back around October 1988 where I first realized, first hand, the reality of a line from John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High" --- "...the shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby..." My eyes were adjusted well enough walking around South Tufa that I was aware of my own very diffuse - and VERY soft - shadow under me! The only illumination was the overhead starlight. I remember starting to hum the song, after my quiet little epiphany!

    Love the absolute calm of the shallow water, allowing for a "Perfect" mirror reflection of the open sky above!!

    Magic place, I still believe. After some 37 years, I haven't lost my passion for THAT place, or the Spirit it conveys to whomever has the quiet of mind to listen. Who says a "muse" needs to have a heartbeat and be cute!

    So true Richard Beebe, I was at South Tufa last night, and the light, wind, seagulls and waves made the moment really special, until two different groups of people started yelling to each other across the small peninsula instead of simply walking 50 yards to express whatever it was that was so important to say.  Fortunately the sunset crowd left, and I had some nice moments during blue hour before the night shift arrived to interrogate the tufa under their harsh, 200-lumen lights.

G+ Photowalk May 4-7: Yosemite National Park

Image
G+ Photowalk May 4-7: Yosemite National Park - A World Heritage Site, one of the world's most incredible landscapes - Lunar rainbows ("moonbows") - waterfalls at peak flow - dogwood trees blooming by the Merced River - Spring wildflowers - reflections in Spring pools & the Merced River - full moon night landscapes The second photowalk in my series this Spring, again coinciding with the full moon to maximize shooting opportunities, will be to Yosemite National Park. This is one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world, and with lunar rainbows and night, full waterfalls, and wildflowers and trees blooming, this is arguably the best weekend of the year to visit. Feel free to RSVP or ask questions here, or for more information in a post which won't get buried, I've set up a post under a new Yosemite page at this link, where I'll maintain all the latest logistical details: https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/116372553458318494396/116372553458318494396/posts/ct...

Limited Time Offer

Limited Time Offer For the next 2 weeks, the light of the setting sun will backlight Horsetail Falls just before sunset... if the waterfall is flowing and if clouds don't block the sun! I just cancelled reservations for 2 rooms at the Yosemite Lodge for Feb 24-26 Weekend. I'll still be going, but I decided to camp instead. Come on up and shoot Yosemite in the Winter! https://picasaweb.google.com/107459220492917008623/MyTravels20062009#5293901653794383122 #plusphotoextract
