A winter shot I took while walking around the valley floor one winter's afternoon.

I snapped this photo one morning on my way to work in Curry Village. The early morning hours are great for the quiet and the awesome light.

I took this shot this past winter during my christmas vacation. A snow storm went thru the night before blanketing the valley. After I took this we headed back down to the valley floor and saw the moon rising over clouds rest.

A picture of me for my profile. It was taken the first summer that I worked up in Yosemite National Park.

After living in the valley for 3 summers this was the first time I took a picture of people bouldering. The bouldering in the valley is amazing and very diverse. You almost need a trip just to see all the great boulders.

I took this photo from just inside of day use parking. Across the water is the beach next to Housekeeping Camp. The water goes through a wide and slow area here allowing for awesome reflections in the winter months.

This has to be one of my favorite all time pictures that I have taken in the valley. You always hope you can take that one picture that you will remember forever. I think this has to be the one for me... :)

I took this shot one winters day as I was walking along the river. As the water slows in the early morning and afternoon you can get amazing reflections. With the help of a polarizing filter you can capture on film what you can see reflected in the wate

I came back one day from working prep crew on Badger Pass and noticed the moon as I came out of my cabin. I ran back inside and grabbed my camera and snapped the last 5 pictures on the roll before the light went away.. I now see how Ansel got it. That m

Here is a shot I took of Sentinel Rock in winter. All that amazing texture of the rock comes out during the winter time. It is definitely an amazing sight.

I took this shot of the ice that forms on Upper and Lower Yosemite Falls everyday during the winter months. The ice forms as it falls in the freezing night air. It is almost as amazing as the sound that the ice makes as it crashes down during the daytime

Swinging Bridge is one of my favorite places to sit and watch the valley around me. You can watch boats float down the river and see people ride along on bikes. It is a nice quiet area and you can see the Chapel from here also.

Here is another shot of the moon and Half Dome for all those skeptics out there. I know its real and that is all that matters.. You have to see it to believe it.

I took this picture while working at the Curry Ice Rink. It was a pretty busy that day. Everyone was wondering what I was taking a picture of and once they saw the moon they snapped the same picture.. :)

I took this photo while working at the Ice Skating Rink in Curry Village. I always wondered how Ansel got his photograph of the moon with Half Dome. I found out the time of year he took it and snapped this photo while I was skating at work. Tought job
