These photos are from hikes that my wife and I took in Yosemite in April 2012. The changeable weather made for wonderful contrasts. I tried a bit of the "Ansel Adams" effect on a couple of them. What an amazing and inspiring photographer he was, not just in composition, but in processing them to get the light just right.

This seagull kept flying around me in a park in Palo Alto.
