Cathedral Peak

[singlepic id=1860 w=480 float=left] Cathedral Peak in Yosemite National Park, looking away from the lake. Oh, and a dead tree in the foreground. It would have been cool to hike around the lake and get a shot of the peak with the lake in the background. It would also have… Continue reading

Tenaya Lake

[singlepic id=1858 w=480 float=left] Tenaya Lake in Yosemite National Park – not quite as beautiful as Crater Lake or as the Cathedral Lakes we were en route to, but still worth a stop along the way. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 10-22mm lens @ 10mm, 1/250 sec, f/16, ISO… Continue reading

Pfalzgrafenstein Castle

[singlepic id=1852 w=480 float=left] I was going to concoct some version of “Islands in a Stream” to go with this picture, but I’m tired.  The Pfalzgrafenstein Castle situated in the middle of the Rhine. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL18200 lens @ 20mm, 1/125 sec shutter, f/8.0, ISO 100
