Lake Tahoe & Yosemite National Park (Part 1):

I went to Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park two weeks back. But i can not find time to edit those photos...Finally I found some time today. Here is half of the photography that i took.

(FYI, Here is the link of the history of Yosemite National Park http://www.nps.gov/yose/nature/nature.htm )


Desert Dragonfly:

On the way to Yosemite, we passed by a lake called "Mono Lake". It looked very beautiful from far away, so we decided to go down and touch the lake. But unluckily, we need to cross a small desert area with small bushes all over the palce. It is an awesome experience. We drove yangbin's small car, but the road condition is very bad. Wait, actually It is not a road. It is just a small path that created by those SUVs......haha...But you know what, it is appear in GPS map....anyway, we spend 40 mins to drive to the lake. Then I found this Dragonfly near the road....

There are a few flowers growing in the desert. They are very obvious, because in that area, there are nothing besides them...hehe...

Stream:

This photo was taken in Yosemite. The river is come from one of the water falls. I remember the time when i was floater (multimedia department), Shih Yang showed me one photo which he took in 1/8sec. I was really amazed by that photo because it is very sharp and clear. So this time i try to use 1/5sec because the lighting is very poor...luckily it is not that bad...hehe.

Famliy Fishing:

It feels like I was in the heaven when i drove to this lake. This lake is in Yosemite, around 5000 fts above sea level. We met this family when they are fishing. Their children were very cute because they dressed like a cow boys and fishing with their parents. It was really a lovely moment.
