Photos from my recent encounter with Bear Grylls at E3. The book he signed is called “The Kid Who Climbed Everest: The Incredible Story of a 23-Year-Old’s Summit of Mt. Everest“.
Both captive and captivating, she waits. Her eyes reaching out from behind the steel, longing for what once was.
While the masses saunter past her, the sound of her infant calf grows faint and like the human idiomatic expressions of her kind, her memory serves her well.
Perhaps too well, for it would be easier to forget than to long for what shall never be again.

Photos from a recent trip in January of 2010 to Yosemite. This was the first trip that I attempted and successfully hiked up Yosemite Falls. It was not as hard as I expected but it was fairly brutal. Never ending switch backs for roughly 95% of the 2,600 foot elevation gain. I highly recommend taking a break at the semi-hidden mid falls detour.
If you go during the winter and take the detour you can watch the falls go from water to snow. Check out the photos to see the mountain of snow that forms.

I have super busy recently which means little time for creativity. Not being able to create and express myself is a draining experience. So, I came up with an quick way to satisfy the intense craving to create. See the result below.
When ever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

I recently had the chance to head to Yosemite in the summer with my brother and Chris. I still think I enjoy winter the most. However, I might be a bit jaded due to the fires closing our normal hotel and ruining our Half Dome hike.
I was just selected to participate in a photography contest ran by my favorite pro photog.
