Julian in Yosemite
Julian came with me to Yosemite, played in the snow, and woke me every morning so I could be sure to photograph dawn.
He had, I think, a very good and special time, although the immensity and ferocity of the winter landscape sometimes gave this child of California pause. What did he do while I was engrossed in photographing the Merced River or some other heroic landscape? He built ice castles by the banks of the Merced River, and enjoyed snowballs!
