I haven't been to Sequoia for more than 20 years. I am surprised...as it looked kind of deserted.

Dawg, these pics rock. Absolutely amazing.

You may not realize who this is (or maybe you do) but I plan to see you in July. Hope to meet your new "lady".

You know, I saw you post a few days ago and I thought that it was a blast from the past, but I could not remember why. If coming in July you might let me know because I already know I am not going to be around for the first part of it.

Hints?

Love those photos, Lloyd. Great American outdoors. Definitely the antidote to sitting in front of a screen 16 hours a day.

Hint is this: The place to be is Las Vegas. And the wedding march just might be playing.

Good pics, man, but, please, these needs quality, can you get yourself a better camera or glasses cus they are outta focus or a little blurred like taken with a single use kodak. No offence, just suggesting.

Nice pics.

What sort of mileage do you do just going out for a wander? I've only ever been on a couple of sportbikes not a Harley and distance was tiring.

I love your photos, but this time it seems they are all the same (of a mountain river)

Nice variety and I really like the effort you put into perspective and scale.

Things like shooting the drawings from the side or straight up the tree makes the
picture more interesting. Shooting the stream from the middle, whether it's from a bridge or you stepped out there gives the viewer a great perspective.

Your pictures keep getting better and thanks for sharing :)

I came across another bear later, but he was even closer (like 10' away) and I did not really feel comfortable putting the kickstand down then trying to get my camera out. He was eating.



Thanks. Actually, I used the standard 18-55 all day until I ran into the first bear. In that case I did feel comfortable stopping and getting the camera out. However, after the first couple of shots I went up the road a piece, and parked the bike. Then I changed lenses and went back to get some more shots of him. I went ahead and left it on for the duration of the journey.

Not all American black bears are black! Colors also include chocolate, brown, cinnamon, and even blonde. When you see a brown-colored bear in Sequoia and Kings Canyon parks, you are seeing a black bear, not a grizzly. Although a grizzly is on the state flag, none remain in the wilds of California.
