I'm currently taking pictures of Kids and Models, check out my Facebook page for details!

Your photos are the best motivation there is...
living in the San Joaquin Valley I am only too familiar with the area. Have been in and around the area many times in years gone by. In my garage hangs my dorment back pack, packed and ready when I am. Just have to get back in shape and in the groove to do it again.

I love those pics. I usually do the northern sierra's but those show that the southern sierra's are a paradise.

One of the best views in that area. I've stopped there to rest for decades on my way to the headwaters of the North fork which is another dimension completely. Thanks for sharing.
