"Ahwahnee Hotel" March 2009, Yosemite National Park, California Canon EOS 5D MK2, Canon 24-70 lens Built in 1927, the historic and elegant Ahwahnee Hotel sits in Yosemite Valley, surrounded by towering granite walls. The designers of the Ahwahnee took great care to ensure that the structure was built with materials which would complement the stunning surroundings. Indeed, careful use of granite, timber, steel and glass enable the hotel to blend seamlessly into the environment. Prices for rooms go for as much as $1000 per night, with reservations sometimes being required a year in advance. The Sunday brunch is as good as I have ever had.
"Hikers at Lower Yosemite Falls" March 2009, Yosemite National Park, California Canon EOS 5D MK2, Canon 24-70 lens Yosemite Falls is actually 3 separate waterfalls. The upper falls plunges 1430', or 436 meters. The middle falls adds an additional 673 foot vertical drop. Finally, the lower falls shown here plunges 318 feet to the valley floor. The two hikers sitting at the base of the falls help to lend a sense of scale to the "baby" segment of this most impressive waterfall.
