Maybe not. We'll see. It's so hard to really capture Yosemite. On one hand, it's nearly impossible to take a bad shot. Everything is so stunning. On the other hand, it's nearly impossible to catch a glimpse of the grandeur - that's like trying to catch an elephant with a bug net. My little digital camera was jamming occasionally; I think it was getting overloaded by the spectacle.
Gotta bow down to Ansel. He carried that freakin box camera and wooden tripod which must have weighed a ton, and didn't even use color and he totally caught it. I was whining about having to carry my backpack, which was fairly light, considering.
T just completed a two-week summer class on digital photography and she's already kicking my butt - she took some good shots. And I'm a pro (in the sense that I get paid to shoot assignments - one of my many hats as a reporter).
