Purple Sunset at Grandview ~ While camping at Grandview Campground, a few miles from the Bristlecone Pines in the White Mountains, the sky had become increasingly cloudy, and I almost gave up on a sunset. Miraculously, when the time came, these glorious colors painted the western sky, becoming brighter and brighter, changing hues, and entertained me well for close to an hour!.
~ Out of Big Pine, California, up a steep, curvy road, Glacier Lodge is a great stop for birding and photography, camping, hiking. This trout pond reflects the sheer glacier-formed cliffs.
God Light Over the Sierras ~ Just returned from a July trip to the Eastern Sierra. Despite two terrific thunderstorms, I greatly enjoyed shooting the resulting cloudy skies. This view was not long before sunset over the Sierra peaks, from the Alabama Hills out of Lone Pine, California.
