I went backpacking with a friend over Memorial Day in the Hetch Hetchy area which is close to Yosemite. Rather than sitting in traffic Monday, I stayed an extra night and explored Yosemite for the first time. It's quite a place. I can see what it's so popular w/ photographers -- there's a grand view almost anywhere you look.
It was overcast most of the time I was there, so I focused on trees. Large

Views from the Trail.
It wasn't until I stopped to take my first spring flower image of the season, that I realized my camera battery was dead.
Ugh.
And it wasn't until I reached the top of the trail that I remembered my good ole iPhone.
Woo-hoo!
Junipers and Catherdral Rock.

Shooting directly into the sun (hidden behind the trees) at the precipise walk near Dolgellau. Beautiful frosty morning.
First time I've used my Walimex fisheye for a few years, pointing it up at these beautiful trees seemed like a good idea, even though the light wasn't fabulous. That and the quite severe CA the lens produces in such a high-contrast shot led me to process it in b&w. As usual with this completely manual lens I set the aperture to f/8 and the focus to infinity.
To get the sunset positioned over one of the coves on Lake Argyle, we drove part way around the lake, turned off the roadway an dfollowed a gravel road down towards the lake. About two thirds of the way down, the road was blocked, so we hiked from there down to a primitive campsite and then beyond it to the shoreline. However, the water level was higher than I expected, and so we were not able to work our way from that point along the shoreline. A few fish later (caught by by grandson), we had a breif view of a beautiful sunset.
The night before, when I debated whether go to the lake, the sunset turned out to be spectacular. Unfortuantely, I stayed home that night and missed out.

Another specimen from Reunion Island on the way to Bassin La Paix, a natural swimming pool nested down a couple of waterfalls. (it was a good day indeed)
I try to photograph this tree and its roots any time I walk through this valley.
It is just so unique as the roots climb up the steep hillside.

One from last weeks Peak District near Torside. Planned to drive up when it was snowing and it didn't disappoint.
Down to a crawl for the rest of the way to Hilton, it makes chasing the Chatt job rather easy. Here they have just rounded a curve west of Sigma at MP 367 and enter a long tree tunnel. A lot of this line is surrounded by trees but compared to any other spot i saw this was the most impressive tree tunnel that also provided some sun light.
