This dramatic land of giants testifies to nature's size, beauty, and diversity--huge mountains, rugged foothills, deep canyons, vast caverns, and the world's largest trees. These two parks lie side by side in the southern Sierra Nevada east of the San Joaquin Valley. Weather varies a lot by season and elevation, which ranges from 1,370' to 14,494'.
There are a lot of challenges in photographing this park. The hug trees and the throngs of tourists in the summer require wide angle lenses and a lot of patience. I have used people to show the scale of the trees and also focus on small objects people may not notice in this park.
