An unusually wet spring brings more precipitation for the normally hot Memorial Day Weekend. Snow in the Sierra Nevada may come as low as 6,000' above mean sea level. Photo taken at elevation of approximately 2,000 feet.

In my mind the black-suited guys were always some kind of Special Forces group. Now they get a decent, lightning-fast speeder bike. For some reason.
This is my LSB group contest entry, hopefully not too late! If it is, oh well.

My thin white border is not so much a frame as a defense against Flickr's all dark background.

We camped here for the night..
near the Columbian Icefield, in the car park for free!

This is NOT shown on this map!!!!
I had to search all along the road using this app!
See where this picture was taken. [?]
It is NOT named on the Flickr Nokia map either! and the Satellite view is pathetic! The loc.alize one is better!
BUT you have to pan left to find it and each pan is a new screen so the Back button takes awhile to get back to the image, easier to use Ctrl H for History...

Actual clouds returned to the skies of Tuolumne County, California, after many days of wildfire smoke and orange sunlight. No rain in months, so this looks promising.

Vernacular shot….
Submissions to the pool must be vintage, original, and fit the "vernacular" theme. Given that the term "vernacular photography" has many different definitions, we'll keep the pool open to a broad interpretation. Photographs that obviously don't fit or for whatever reason are inappropriate to the group can be removed by the administrators without any warning or explanation.
Here's an explanation that I really like:
"Aesthetically unpretentious, generally functional images made by amateur snapshooters or grass-roots professionals (e.g. itinerant tintypists, photowallahs, or jobbing local portraitists) for everyday purposes such as creating keepsakes or recording mundane objects. In 1964, John Szarkowski mounted an exhibition at MoMA, New York, that combined both ‘art’ and (often anonymous) vernacular works under the title ‘The Photographer's Eye’; a book with the same title appeared two years later. Its aim was to elucidate the formal questions common to all branches of the medium. However, some critics saw the juxtaposition as tending to subvert the authority of the ‘canonical’ pictures - just as they were beginning to be taken seriously by museums and dealers. Later, in a celebrated 1976 essay, ‘Diana and Nikon’, Janet Malcolm reviewed the issues and noted both the continuing growth of historical and market interest in vernacular work and the spread of a ‘snapshot’ aesthetic in the avant-garde. Both trends have persisted into the 21st century. — Robin Lenman"

Our sky was filled with these beautiful cumulus clouds with heavy wind and no rain. I know there's a lot to this series but as a science geek and lover of weather I couldn't decide on just one, I wanted to share all of its beauty with you
This panorama shows lenticular clouds on the far, East horizon of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. To the right of the lenticular clouds is a cloud of smoke from a wildfire of unknown origin near Camp Mather, Yosemite National Park.
I had thought it was a controlled burn by the Forest Service, but it isn't. It is within the area of the 2013 Rim Fire, Stanislaus National Forest.
Rainbow and dark clouds gather.
During a lull, while we waited for the main Last Post Service to commence.
The halls around the Remembrance Pool were 3 and 4 deep with tourists, families, respectful quiet visitors, and a few crying babies!
The cockies screeching overhead made more noise than some of the babies, and I thought the Diggers at the Front in the trenches, would have loved to hear the birds flying over, and to hear the cry of small babies....
We were here for this Digger.. www.awm.gov.au/people/rolls/R1635523/
See Youtube video here, of the Last Post...
Used the G12 Polaroid filter.

Just before sunset, with an unusual mid-spring, cool and wet system dipping into central California.
