Here’s the newest video in the Yosemite Nature Notes series. This one is entitled Snow Line and is about the snow line in the Sierra Nevada during storms. It also includes some amazing footage of the flood in 1997. I want to thank the National Park Service, The Yosemite Fund and Steve Bumgardner for putting these on YouTube and allowing us to embed them on our sites now. That’s awesome. This can also be watched in full screen HD by choosing 720p from the drop down menu on the right and then clicking the full screen button next to it.

Here’s an interesting time-lapse video from Yosemite. It was created by Steven M. Bumgardner, the same guy who does the Yosemite Nature Notes. It’s called “People in Yosemite: A TimeLapse Study”.

My favorite part of the video is the climbers. They look like insects crawling all over the rock. To learn more about the video click on the links above.

Flickr has a new feature called Galleries. It let’s you build galleries of up to 18 pictures from other members images. It’s a cool way to show off other folks photography that you enjoy. The other day I decided to play around with the gallery feature and I built my first gallery. The gallery is called Uniquely Yosemite and features images from photographers who have photographed Yosemite from unique perspectives. These photos aren’t your typical Yosemite shots.

To give an example of how over shot Yosemite Valley is, and how many of those images are taken from the same places in the valley, I had to go through 50 pages of photos, with each page containing 50-60 photos, to find these 17 unique images. Is that nuts or what?

If you’d like to check out this gallery, here’s the link: Flickr Gallery, Uniquely Yosemite
I think my favorite shot is #13, it is so hilarious.

One of my images has been included in a gallery so far. It was one of the back lit rose images. Here’s the link to that: Flickr Gallery, Flower Macros
I consider it quite a compliment to be included in that gallery of macro images.
