Yosemite Fall

Scan000076Yosemite Fall is one of the most popular and well-recognized sights in Yosemite Valley. The image was made from near the Sentinel Bridge. The cameras were 2 Bronica SQAs with 80 mm lenses (normal focal length). I had them on tripods about 15 yards apart. The shutters were synchronized by my tossing a rock in the air and when it hit the ground I and a friend at the other camera released the shutters at the same instant.

Water-Eroded Granite

Scan000077The location of this image was along Illilouette Creek which is southeast of Yosemite Valley. I was on a several day backpacking trip in the summer of 2009 at the time. There is granite everywhere in Yosemite. Wherever water is running it carves and polishes the granite over hundreds of thousands of years. This image was made with the TL-120 stereo camera.

Base of Cascade Fall

Scan000078This image was made in 2008. Cascade Fall is just outside of Yosemite Valley. You can see it from Highway 140 as you are driving in to the valley. To make the image I used 2 Bronica SQA cameras with 50mm lenses (wide angle). The cameras were 4 inches apart on a tripod. I can’t remember the exact exposure time, but it was around 10 seconds.

Summer in Boise

From the winter of 2008, we move to the summer of 2008.  That summer, the NSA convention was in Boise. I went and took my TL120-1 along. Aside from the good time, good conversations, and good theater, there was great weather. I don’t know what the folks in Boise thought of it, but it was warm and dry (certainly not Juneau weather) and it appealed.

These were the two better street-shots of the two rolls I burned in Boise. Both are from a hand-held TL120-1.
