on Tioga Road, Yosemite NP

Fortunate to have good weather for my one chance at photographing sunset from Bass Harbor Lighthouse at Acadia National Park. This was taken at dusk after the Sun went down behind the treeline. Lucky the afterglow was still providing good color on the clouds.

Most photographed location in North America Maroon Bells near Aspen, Colorado. Completely packed Saturday morning with crowds flowing in as early as 3:30 AM to get the best spot and was rewarded with one of the best sunrise with the clouds rolled in right before sunrise adds a nice element to the towering bells.

Beautiful dark skies of death Valley national Park, California

From one of the greatest, Yosemite.

 

Lone spruce gets last glimpses of sunlight, mighty El Capitan on background.

This shot is taken at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley national park. The last light on the top of the mountain gives an impression of setting sun.

This is a 4 shots panorama of Glacier point at Yosemite national park, California.

 

Hiking under the full moon on the Sand Dunes is nothing but magical!

sunset at Tunnel View, Yosemite National Park, California

 

Half Dome at sunset as seen from Glacier Point in Yosemite.

It's one of the best sunsets I've ever witnessed I hope you w'd enjoy it too.

I took lot of pictures as the sunset progressed The longer you wait for something, the more you appreciate it when you get it. Because anything worth having is definitely something worth waiting.

Sun was almost gone and the dome lit-up !

Located in Joshua Tree National Park, it could appear that the two main objects which make up this iconic scene have a natural magnetic attraction.

 

While my original plan was to photograph here through sunset, before moving on to a different location, I decided to stay and keep shooting during twilight, in an attempt to capture an image that conveys a different mood and feeling to this magical scene.

 

With just a little imagination, I would say the rock resembles the shape of a penguin.

My biggest takeaway from this location is don't go again. Filled with people who don't have basic night photography etiquette. During my exposure they walkout with powerful torches to see the path. One of the best parts about going to a dark site is to get your eyes adjusted to natural light and you see lot of things without needing a powerful light. In my 45 mins shooting here I get hit by light in my face 10 times by people passing by to see who is standing.

Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

 

Today marks the 100th Birthday for the National Park Service. The NPS is America's best Idea.... ever.

 

Designated in 1916, the National Park Service has set aside over 84 million acres of protected land for everyone to explore and enjoy. The coolest thing about the national parks is that they exist for everyone. Whether you’re a hiker, climber, camper, or “glam”per – whether you travel by bicycle, foot, or chair – there’s a park for you.

 

About the photo: this is me playin' around w/ capturing a selfie the "old school" way during sunrise. It ain't easy setting the camera timer and then hurrying to go stand on a rock. BTW, my selfie stick has 3 legs :-)

 

My photo made it onto the online Washington Post via their Capital Weather Gang coverage of the NPS 100.

 

THANKS FOR VIEWING!

Iconic Maroon bells at sunrise with fall Aspen foliage and stunning mirror like reflections. No matter how crowded this place is and how many millions of photographs this is one to see in person place.

Had to remove the previous one and repost with some fixes for sky and reflection.

Mesa arch at sunrise with this two row pano at 50mm. I wanted one more frame on right to cover the entire thing but tripods and lenses were on the way.

View of Otter Cliff from Boulder Beach at Acadia National Park. This is the companion photo to the Boulder Beach blue hour photo I posted earlier this year. I took both during the same morning sunrise.

Mount Rainier and Eunice Lake from Tolmie Peak, northwest Mount Rainier National Park.

 

The trailhead for this hike is at Mowich Lake, which is the farther of the two lakes in the picture. At the peak is a fire watch tower, which is still occasionally used. How is this for the view from your summer job?

Near Mount Washburn in Yellowstone National Park, this was not far off the road after we had pulled off to enjoy the beautiful landscape. The day was rather dreary and that tree was awfully barren, but the ground was teeming with vibrant new life.

Yellowstone National Park had so many incredible colors across the landscape, but the most vibrant came from bacteria. The hot water from the geyser basins is home to different colored bacteria, depending on the exact temperature. At West Thumb Geyser Basin, this meant that the water flowing out into Yellowstone Lake almost resembled an orange lava. The dark clouds coming in only accentuated the color.

At 7,000 feet in elevation, the plane is so close to these mountains and glaciers, it feels like I could reach out and touch them. This glacier coming down from the mountain was both surreal and beautiful. Never before have I seen massive glaciers on a mountain this close. Beautiful shapes, contrast, and colors. I guess the overwhelming curiosity is how do these massive glaciers stay on a steep mountain top. To give you a perspective, the top of the peaks in this photo are just over 10,000 feet with an incline of almost 45 degrees.

The sun setting over Gettysburg National Military Park. We made it to town just in time to catch it. Absolutely love visiting this place.

Tunnel View provides one of the most famous views of Yosemite Valley. From here you can see El Capitan and Bridalveil Fall rising from Yosemite Valley, with Half Dome in the background.

Got up early to get this photo before meetings started. The haziness was caused by the 2013 fires in neighboring Idaho. The fire season of 2013 was one of the worse in years.

Painted Wall on the north side of the Black Canyon is the tallest sheer cliff in Colorado at 2,250 feet (690 m). This is my first visit to this smallest National park, more to come in Spring from this location.
