Fresh scans!

This first one is yet another of my friend Euell's and myself's excursions. We climbed alongside a roaring Horsetail Falls in Desolation Wilderness to get this view of Pyramid Peak.

Moraine Lake in the Alberta Rockies, near Lake Louise, just HAS to be one of the most picturesque places in the world. The lighting conditions there weren't too good but, I had to make do with what natures provided me with. I've been trying a little bit of "tweakage" on my scans to see just what I can and can't do. This one I just couldn't seem to improve that sunny peak enough to make a difference.

Now, here's a picture that never needed any "tweaking". This view of the Sierra Nevada and the Owens Valley from high in the White Mountains is dramatic and, again, is an example of the "Third's Rule". One of these days, I'll post a picture of the next morning's crystal clear view of the entire southern Sierra Nevada.

This part of a slide caught my eye and I wanted to see if I could zoom in and make a new picture of the people on Half Dome's cable ladder. This one you're going to want to right click on the picture and select "Open link in a new window". It was certainly rather intimidating when I first stood here and took this picture.

This last shot was a glorious morning back in March of '95. I had just stayed overnight on top of Glacier Point in Yosemite National Park. The fresh snow was still on the trees and the hustle and bustle of everyday life was gone in favor of the wind, the sun, the snow and the sky (and the occasional belching roar of a shuttle bus 3000 feet below).
