Another day in Yosemite, another chance to shoot a "classic," that is to say, a shot you've seen a thousand times
before.  El Capitan from Valley View, ho hum. The problem is, you know if you don't shoot it, you'll be sorry,  and it
doesn't feel "ho hum" when you're there, so you just go ahead and do it.  The thing is, even if it's predictable and
cliche, it's still gorgeous, and still looks great on the wall.  I don't know what the solution to the dilemma is, but I just
go ahead and do the best I can, since I'm there anyway.  Maybe better photographers just pass these shots by,
but I can't bring myself to, at least the first time.
As most people seem to
prefer them, prices are for
framed prints, ready to
hang.  I use a very nice
matt black wood frame 7/8
of an inch wide, with a
white mat.  If you would like
to order unframed prints,
go to the "Purchase" page
for pricing.
