Sunset above Gaylor Lakes Basin with the Cathedral Range in the distance. Yosemite National Park, California.
After arriving in the afternoon and setting up camp at Tuolumne Meadows I went out on the prowl for photographs and decided to climb the ridge towards Gaylor Basin in the evening. This photograph was made from a high point on the ridge a bit off the trail, looking back towards Gaylor Lake and the Cathedral Range and other Sierra peaks in the distance.

A cloudy July sky over a hilltop fence line in Central California. While it might make a better story if I had made this photograph is some exotic place, I’m afraid that I saw this scene on an afternoon at a nearby place where I frequently hike. This is why I always carry my camera when I hike…
