Yosemite and More

I took a hike along a great trail following the South Fork of the Merced River. The Hite Cove Trail is a wonderful place to take photographs of wildflowers, over the next few weeks the flowers will be blooming and each trip will highlight different ones. Hope you  (and I) can get up there to enjoy them. Go, See, Enjoy!

I had a couple of comments on a wild flower that I posted a few days ago. I desaturated the color and the requests were to see the original photograph. Here is the original with some minor adjustments in Photo Shop. Let me know what you think. Art is so subjective, gotta love it. Go, See, Enjoy!

Here is an example of some of the color that shows up this time of the year throughout the Central Valley and will work it's way up through the foothills and into the Sierras. One thing to remember if you're looking for wild flowers, don't expect them near orchards. Farmers don't like competition for their bees. Go, See, Enjoy!

I I had a little time to get out and take some wildflower photographs today. The colors are spectacular. However I decided to desaturate this one, that is remove most of the color. Not going  all the way to black and white. It was originally a bright orange. Go, See, Enjoy!
