Keuchel shuts down AngelsJun 1, 2013 - 6:19 AM Anaheim, CA (Sports Network) - Dallas Keuchel pitched seven strong innings and Jason Castro homered in Houston's 6-3 win over the Angels Friday night.
Keuchel (2-2), who was moved into the rotation May 10, scattered six hits, fanned four and gave up two runs.
Carlos Pena had three hits, drove in a run and scored once for the Astros, who won for the fourth time in five games.
"I tried to stay within myself, when you look at the standings, we're not doing well, but we want to dwell on the positive," said Pena. "We want to play the best baseball we can. I'm pleased with the way we're coming together."
Tommy Hanson (2-2) returned after taking three weeks away from the team to deal with the aftermath of the death of his stepbrother. He was charged with eight hits and five runs -- four earned -- over 6 1/3 frames.
"It was good being out there, but it didn't go the way I wanted it to go," said Hanson. "I felt like I threw a lot of strikes. As a starter, you want to go as long as you can."
Erick Aybar clubbed a solo homer for the Angels, who had split four games with the Dodgers this week.
Ahead by a run, the Astros got three big insurance runs in the seventh inning, two on RBI base hits from Brandon Barnes and Pena. The other score came courtesy of Howie Kendrick's throwing error.
Paul Clemens served up Aybar's homer in the eighth and the Angels put runners at the corners later in the inning. Travis Blackley retired Josh Hamilton on a pop-up to third base to end the threat.
Jose Veras pitched the final inning for his ninth save.
Chris Iannetta had an RBI single and Chris Nelson plated a run on a groundout in the second inning to give the Angels a 2-0 lead.
Castro led off the third with a homer to center. J.D. Martinez singled and Pena doubled before Chris Carter lifted a sacrifice fly to left. Jimmy Paredes singled to right to put runners at the corners again and Matt Dominguez lofted a sacrifice fly to right. Pena scored partly because the throw home was cut off by Hanson, and Iannetta was also near the mound.
Game Notes
The Astros placed pitcher Edgar Gonzalez on the 15-day disabled list and activated pitcher Josh Fields from the 15-day DL ... Houston has won four of the seven meetings this year ... Aybar had two of the Angels' seven hits.

"Islands in the Stream" is a big, strong, old-fashioned movie about that threatened species, the Hemingway Hero. It celebrates physical courage and boozing all night and the initiation of boys into manhood, and it has a fishing scene, a battle scene, a love scene and a whore with a heart of gold. Papa would have loved it, and no wonder: He wrote it, and in many ways it's about him.
This was the posthumous Hemingway novel, assembled by his widow, Mary, from various drafts and stages of the work in progress. Its reviews weren't particularly good, and there's a possibility that Hemingway, had he lived, might have decided not to publish it. But it makes good movie material: The best movies somehow seem to come from second-rate books, while great literature resists translation into other forms.
The story takes place in the late 1930s, with the war clouds of Europe showing over the horizon. George. C. Scott, as Thomas Hutson, bearded sculptor, twice-divorced, rugged individualist, patrols the beachfront of his Caribbean home. He has a beer gut but projects a lot of latent strength, and he's clearly at home here. He inspects his boat, diagnoses his first mate's nearly terminal hangover, and repairs to the local hotel for a drink and some repartee with his favorite hooker. It's a big day: His three sons are coming for a visit.
We've already guessed that, because the first third of the film is boldly labeled "The Boys" (later we get "The Woman" and then "The Voyage" - nothing like your Hemingway story divisions written bold against the sunrise). The oldest boy, almost old enough to go off to war, is by his first wife and only true love; they were divorced because they hurt each other too much. The other two sons are by a second, less remarkable, former marriage.
The older boy is a good one, and Hutson loves him. The middle son is the problem: He remembers Hutson's mistreatment of his mother, and hates and fears him. But his hatred is exorcised during a scene which is, at one level, pure Hemingway B.S., and at another level, remarkably exciting. The boy hooks a giant sport fish, and does battle with it for hour after hour in the blinding sun. His hands are bleeding, and his feet where they cut into the railing, but he won't let anyone else handle the fish. And his struggle becomes an initiation into manhood: Somehow (the reasoning is a little murky), by proving himself a man he can confront his father as equal and so no longer needs to hate him.
The boys fly back to the states, where the oldest enlists in the Canadian Air Force, and Hutson's life settles back into a routine of male camaraderie, drinking, sculpting, and frequenting the hotel. Then one day, unexpectedly, his first wife (Claire Bloom) arrives. They talk and remember and drink, and then, in one of those stunningly beautiful moments that can redeem any film, Hutson realizes why she has come. She has come to tell him that their son is dead.
Scott plays this scene with immense intelligence: The conversation meanders without building, and the hot day drones on, and his former wife asks for another drink just a little too urgently. His back is turned to us when the realization hits him. He reaches up and touches the back of his neck as if a ghost had breathed there, and somehow the way he stands there, the angle of his hand and head, tell us what he's realized.
The film's third movement is the least satisfactory: Jewish refugees arrive on the island, and Hutson, perhaps out of unresolved guilt about his son, engages to smuggle them into Cuba on his fishing boat. There are beautifully photographed scenes along an inland river, and some fighting and dying, but the film seems to have lost its touch right at the end. Overlit flashbacks and fantasies are supposed to represent a man's dying thoughts but represent, instead, a last gasp of cinematic imagination.
The supporting performances are good (David Hemmings looks physically transformed as he sinks into the role of the alcoholic boat's mate). The physical appearance of the film is stunning (the director, Franklin J. Schaffner, and the cinematographer, Fred Koenekamp, worked together with Scott on "Patton"). There are a few rough spots, especially with the ending and with some particularly phony special effects purporting to show burning ships. No matter; for most of the way, "Islands in the Stream" plays it well and good and honestly, as someone might once have said.
Stop watching movies made by assholes. It'll be OK.

I just love Pink and Mains darling bow dies! They make everything so festive! I decided to make a pocket card with Pink and Main papers and dies!
Design Steps:
- Use an A2 green card base with the fold at the bottom. Score the front top fold at 1 3/4 inches and then glue the flap down to the card base. Next open the card and run a thin line of glue down both sides to form the pocket
- Using Pink and Mains Jolly Paper Pad cut the plaid paper for the bottom of the card 2 x 4 and glue it just under the flap. Next cut the checked green paper 1 1/2 x 4 and glue it to the flap
3. To make the tag cut a 5 1/4 x 3 1/2 inch piece of white card stock and cut the top corners at a diagonal. Punch a 3/4 inch circle out of the green checked paper and glue to the top of the tag then punch a 1/4 circle in the center of it
4. Next cut 2 pieces 4 x 1/4 inch of shimmer red card stock, a 1/2 x 4 inch piece of checked paper, and a 2 x 3 1/4 piece of green checked paper. Glue as shown below
5. Using the red shimmer paper cut out the Pink and Main Large Bow and the Pink and Main Merry Christmas and glue down as shown
6. Add the sticker snowflakes and ribbon and your card is ready to go

Casio Exilim EX-H10 review
Jan 16, 2010 • Review of Casio Exilim EX-H10
Battery lasts very long but not as much as 1,000 shots though. Button layout is quite hard to use comparing with my previous camera (Sony T10). Also I like its 10x zoom despite little image quality drop. Color is really vivid. No problem even in night shot. However, macro distance is obviously disappointing.

Similar products at regular tile stores are closer to $30/sqft. These tiles are awesome and go well with a lot of glass mosaic patterns. (we did a stripe down the middle of glass tile)
Some things to be aware of before installing:
- The stainless is placed on top of regular ceramic tile so you install it no different from regular tile.
- Have liquid nails or similar product available if you need to cut a small piece. The stainless can pop off, but you just reglue it.
- A regular wet tile saw will cut it (watch your fingers), but have something ready to burr the edge. I used a really sharp knife to remove the metal burr, but I'm sure there's a better solution.
- Before opening the package, check for light scratches and incorrect spacing of tiles. Return it if they exist.
- Handle the tiles carefully, don't stack them on top of each other after unpacking, etc.
- Laticrete permacolor non-sanded grout "platinum" color matches amazingly.
- It scratches and shows fingerprints no differently than a stainless appliance.

When last did Grace cross your way?
When last did GRACE cross your way in the form of an undeserved favor?
- Amazing Grace: "I once was blind, but now I see... lost, but found..."
These words were written by a Ship's Captain (blind in old age) as confession because for many years thousands of slaves died on his ships on their way from Africa to Europe.
- About a week ago, unexpectedly, Grace also came knocking on our door in the form of a marriage renewal!
Our prayer for you
Friend, it is my prayer that when you, and those dear to you,
walk through the valleys of weeping (experiencing pain),
the Lord will provide in such a way that it will become a place of refreshing springs (abundance).
That the rain in the right season will clothe you with blessings (His provision).
The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right.
The other morning Psalm 84 brought spontaneous tears as I again, like so many times before, became overwhelmed with the way our Lord provides in His children's needs.
What is Virtual Led Movement (VLM)?
The Virtual Led Movement (Internet Ministry) presents interaction between the web page visitors and the VLM, as the Word of God becomes activated and alive in our Ministry according to Isaiah 40:9
'You who bring good news to Zion, go up on a high mountain. You who bring good news to Jerusalem, (i) lift up your voice with a shout, (ii) lift it up, do not be afraid; (iii) say to the towns of Judah, "Here is your God!"'
Internet Training in Kleinmond
During March 2011 a 5 day Internet Ministry training were held at our place in Kleinmond.
7 people, all fulltime staff of Campus Crusade for Christ, attended. They were trained in various strategies and ways to use the internet for ministry purposes.
The ultimate goal is to reach people globally for God's Kingdom, through the Internet!
Ethiopia Internet Ministry Conference
Pieter attended a VLM (Internet Ministry) conference in Ethiopia in the beginning of March 2011.
Together with VLM partners all over Africa and USA, they could put heads together - not only mastering NEW skills, but sharing knowledge and planning effective ways to help fulfill the Great Commission in our generation (Matthew 28:18-20).
DEEPLY ENGRAVED in our hearts
Our 20 years as fulltime staff with CCC has really shaped our lives.
The principles being taught by CCC will forever be part of us, as it is DEEPLY ENGRAVED in our hearts.
Today Magdaleen and myself are still working to the fulfillment of the Great Commission through the Internet Ministry (VLM).
Fill That Love Tank
Love is the most important word in the English language.
Psychologists have concluded and most of us agree that the need to feel loved is a primary human emotional need. I like to picture that inside all of us is an emotional love tank. If the tank is full, we fare well. But if the tank is empty, life becomes dark.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anon01 from Looks great The delivery for this item was very fast, quite impressive. I very much like the plain style. Overall they look good. A minor point to note, I find three pairs of eyelets like these have is by far the easiest for adjusting laces. The size runs a little large perhaps half a size or more, but they are fairly comfortable. The toe is quite elongated and pointy, I would have preferred slightly shorted and more rounded. I'm not sure about the "leather" upper. I tried applying leather conditioner to them but it wouldn't absorb at all. Never seen that before from leather shoes.

Ivan Savvidis gains management of the Port of Thessaloniki
The sale is part of the country's ongoing effort to privatise public assets
A joint venture of German, French, and Greek companies gained control of the Port of Thessaloniki, Greece's second largest, for €231.9 million. The sale was part of the country's ongoing effort to privatise public assets and was part of an open public tender. The venture comprises German Deutsche Invest Equity Partners GMBh, the French Terminal Link SAS (part of CMA CGM group) and Ivan Savvidis' Belterra Investments Ltd. They gain control of 67 per cent of the company, outbidding the second bidder by a 10 percent margin.
The total cost of the deal amounts to €1.1 billion, including an obligation by the bidders to invest €180m over the next seven years. The deal was made possible when CMA CGM, one of the world's leading port management companies (servicing 420 of the world's 521 commercial ports) entered the venture, through its branch, Terminal Link. The venture will manage the port - one of the most significant of the Balkans - until 2051.
This is one of the biggest investments that the Greek-Russian businessman (and owner of PAOK FC) has made in Greece and it follows his pledge to invest €250m in the coming years.

Rather than attempting to reproduce a scene exactly as we see it, enduring photographs reveal unseen aspects of our world. Capturing this hidden world requires understanding and mastery of photography's "creativity triad," the three aspects of a scene that distinguish the camera's vision from human vision: motion, light, and depth.
Motion: Autumn Spiral
The human experience of the world unfolds like a seamless movie of continuous instants, while a camera accumulates light throughout its exposure to conflates those instants into a single frame.
Last week in Yosemite I got an opportunity to play with motion while photographing autumn leaves blanketing nearly every exposed surface below Bridalveil Fall. Beneath the fall Bridalveil Creek splits into three branches I love to explore—up- or down-stream, it doesn't matter—searching for more intimate scenes. Last week I stayed close to the trail—not by design, but because I found enough to occupy every available minute.
Most of the fallen leaves had come to rest on granite, but those that had landed on the creek had been instantly swept downstream until they came to rest in sheltered pools, pushing up against and accumulating the rocks that bounded the pool. I found some pools that were entirely covered with leaves of varying shades of yellow and (just a little) green.
This little scene was downstream from the third bridge. The leaves here had been accumulating in this pool for a few days, leaving it more than half covered on this my final day in Yosemite. More than the golden pool, what really drew my attention from the bridge was a small collection of leaves, soon to become part of the pool's autumn mosaic, swirling in a slowly spiraling current.
I set up my tripod right on the bridge, pulled out my new Sony 100-400 GM lens, dialed my polarizer to minimize reflections, and went to work. Because so much was happening in the scene, I started toward the lens's wide end, but quickly found myself tightening each composition until I got down to a version of what you see here.
Once I had my composition, it became all about the motion in the leaves. When photographing landscape subjects in motion, each click can render a completely different image, so I've learned to never stop at one (or two, or three…). Whether it's ocean waves, churning whitewater, or spinning leaves, I always make sure I have a variety of motion effects from which to choose. In this case, while the leaves were spiraling in a fairly consistent current, it seemed that with each rotation at least one leaf would go rogue, either slowing, accelerating, or making a break for the perimeter. The result was a distinctly different spiral with each capture.
I experimented with shutter speeds between ten and thirty seconds. Sometimes I'll use a neutral density filter to stretch my shutter speed, but for this scene I was using a polarizer (minus two stops), it was quite early (shortly after sunrise) in an always densely shaded location, and darkened even further by the dense clouds of an approaching storm. In other words, the scene was dark enough that I could get the shutter speed all the way out to thirty seconds with my f-stop and ISO settings. When I was done, I had about 20 frames to choose from (one more argument for the tripod), identical except for a little different swirl.
While a still camera can't capture motion as humans view it, in the right hands the camera absolutely does capture motion in ways that I'd argue can be even more appealing than being there. In this case, the spiral nature of this pool's motion is much more apparent in this image than it was witnessing it firsthand.
Because there always has to be a moral…
The moral of this story is the importance of being able to manage your exposure variables: You can't control motion, depth, and light without knowing how to achieve the shutter speed, f-stop, and ISO that serves your creative objective with minimal image quality compromise. That means retaining full control of your exposure settings by shooting in manual, aperture priority, or shutter priority modes. (And if you choose aperture or shutter priority, you must be able to manage your camera's exposure compensation dial.)

Rather than attempt the impossible task of choosing a favorite season in Yosemite, I find it easier to identify the things I like most about each season. From colorful fall to white winter to saturated spring, Yosemite becomes a completely different place with each season. (FYI, summer is for tourists.) But regardless of the season, I think it's Yosemite's reflections that make me happiest.
Yosemite's reflection locations vary with the season. After a storm, small reflective pools form in Yosemite's ubiquitous granite, then disappear almost as quickly as they appeared. The Merced River, is a continuous ribbon of reflection in the late summer and autumn low-water months, and a churning torrent in spring. But even in those high snowmelt months, reliable pockets of calm can be found along the riverbank, and there are a handful of spots where the river widens and smooths enough to reflect color and shape.
I think my favorite Yosemite reflections may be the ones I find in the flooded meadows during a wet spring, not necessarily because they're any more beautiful than the other reflections, but mostly because they're much more rare. Many years we don't get these vernal pools at all, and even when they do form, their lifetime is measured in days or weeks.
Following years of drought, a record winter snowfall earlier this year translated to a record spring snowmelt, sending the Merced River well over its banks and into many of Yosemite's normally high-and-dry meadows. This wasn't "run for your life!" flooding, it was a gradual rise that seeped into and eventually submerged meadows, trails, and even some Yosemite Valley roads.
Leidig Meadow west of Yosemite Lodge is one of those spots that doesn't usually flood, but flooding here is far from unprecedented. This year when I parked in my usual spot west of the meadow and attempted the normally relaxing 1/4 mile stroll along the river, I had to wade through eight inches of water to make it to the meadow. When I returned a few days later with my workshop group, even after choosing another somewhat less treacherous parking spot, we still had to pick our steps carefully or risk a shoe-full of water.
Meadows are always fragile, but never more-so than when they're wet, so rather than venture further into the meadow, we set our sights on the numerous reflections among the trees near the (mostly submerged) trail. Even still, we ended up with a number of wet shoes and pant legs, some accidental and some by design (to get the shot, of course).
When it appeared the sunset show was over, the group started to pack up and head back to the cars. About the time I was ready to call it myself, I noticed a little bounce-back pink in the thin clouds overhead and warned everyone that they might be packing it in a little too soon. Many were anxious to get dry and escape the mosquito feast, but those of us who stayed were rewarded with about ten minutes of post-sunset color that went from pale pink to electric magenta, one of those moments in nature that you think just can't get any better until somehow it does.
Reflecting a bit on reflections
A reflection can turn an ordinary pretty picture into something special. Of course they aren't always possible, but when the opportunity exists I pursue reflections aggressively, scanning the scene for potentially reflective water and positioning myself accordingly. Too often I see people walk up to a reflection, plop down their tripod, and make a picture of whatever happens to be bouncing off the water at their feet. But maximizing reflection opportunities starts with understanding that, just like a billiard ball striking a cushion, a reflection always bounces off the reflective surface at exactly the same angle at which it arrived.
Armed with this knowledge, when I encounter a reflective surface, I scan the area for something worthy of reflecting. Sometimes that's easy (Half Dome, for example), sometimes it's a little tougher (like a rapidly moving sunlit cloud). Knowing that all I need to do is position myself in the path of the reflection of my target subject, I move left/right, forward/backward, up/down until my object appears. I've observed that many people are pretty good about the left/right thing, not quite so good with the forward/backward part, and downright miserable at the up/down. But I've found that once I get the left/right position nailed, it's the up/down that makes the most difference.
For example, in the spring reflection of Half Dome at the top of this post, it's not an accident that the Half Dome and North Dome reflections are centered and uncluttered by all the grass and leaves scattered throughout the water. The centering part was pretty easy, but finding a large enough clean surface to reflect the two domes required a lot of forward/backward maneuvering, combined with frequent up/down dipping—I'm sure to the uninformed observer it appeared that I was trying out a new dance routine.

After years of drought, in spring of 2016 I had the good fortune to photograph Yosemite Valley with actual flooding—nothing devastating, just enough for the Merced River to overspill its banks and create reflections where meadows normally exist. One such location was a spot beneath El Capitan, where I found myself faced with the challenge of capturing more scene than my 16-35 lens could handle.
Stitching multiple frames was an option, but because I have a thing about not doing things I couldn't do with film, my goal is to always capture a scene with one click (this is my problem, and in no way do I mean to discourage others from entering the 21st century). One benefit of my self-imposed one-click rule is that I often find creative compositions I might have overlooked had I settled for the easy solution, but in this case I really, really wanted to photograph the entire scene. The photography gods were smiling upon me that day, as I was leading a workshop and the photographer assisting me generously offered to loan me his Canon 11-24 f/4 lens (thanks, Curt). Since I had in my possession a Metabones adapter that allowed me to pair Canon glass to my Sony body, I leapt at the opportunity.
That was an epiphany moment for me, because even though I knew that the difference between 11mm and 16mm is more significant than it sounds, I'd never really compared the two focal lengths side-by-side. Replacing my 16-35 with Curt's 11-24, suddenly I had the entire scene in my viewfinder, with room to spare. Not only that, I learned as soon as I put the images up on my monitor that the Canon lens was really sharp—I was in love. Sony shooter or not, I came home fully intending to purchase the Canon lens, and came very close to making a big mistake.
My decision not to pull the trigger on a Canon 11-24 purchase was three-fold: 1) it was $3000 2) it's so massive that it could never be a full time resident of my camera bag 3) I knew Sony was committed to expanding their lens lineup, and that I'd be wracked with regret if Sony released a similar lens soon after I'd sunk $3,000 into a lens that could double as a boat anchor. But still….
Imagine my relief when my Sony doused my Canon fantasies with an ultra-wide lens of their own this spring. Given the opportunity to test the Sony 12-24 f/4 G lens before it was announced, I immediately took it to Yosemite where the flooding on the Merced was even more extreme than last year. Finding "my" spot underwater, I probed the riverbank for nearby vantage points and found the view I've shared at the top of this post.
It wasn't difficult to see that the Sony 12-24 is every bit as sharp as the Canon 11-24. And not only does it not require an adapter to use on my Sony bodies, it weighs less than half of what the Canon ultra-wide weighs. I ordered the 12-24 immediately and this week packed for my first trip with it.
When I drive to a photo destination I bring virtually every piece of camera gear I own, but when I fly, I need to be a little more selective. As I chewed on what to bring and what to leave out, not only did I quickly confirm that the 12-24 would make the cut, I discovered that the new lens is small and compact enough to occupy a permanent space my camera bag.
Which brings me to another thought. I shoot Sony mirrorless for several reasons—foremost is the image quality: Sony's unmatched combination of resolution, dynamic range, and low-light capability is exactly what I need for landscape photography. And after a few growing pains, I've come to love the electronic viewfinder and can't imagine ever going back. Sony's lenses are as sharp or sharper than anything I had from Canon, but I don't think the compactness of Sony's f/4 glass gets the credit it deserves for their ability to provide so much quality in such a compact package. How compact? They're small enough to slide into a slot in my bag oriented up/down (resting on an end rather than along a side), which gives me so much more room for more gear (and what photographer doesn't love more gear).
Here's what's in my camera bag (F-stop Tilopa) for this week's trip to the Grand Canyon:
That's three (!) bodies and five (!) lenses, with room for even more stuff. Photographer heaven.
A few words about wide angle photography
Despite the fact that wide angle is the reflex response to most landscapes by virtually every tourist who picks up a camera, good wide angle photography is not easy. From diminished backgrounds to tilting verticals, wide angle lenses pose problems that can be turned to opportunities if they're fully understood. I'll save a full discussion of wide angle photography for another day, but here are a couple of tips that might help:

One of the most frequently asked questions in my Yosemite workshops is some variation of, "Why are there so many dead trees?" My standard answer has always been a summary of what I've learned from talking to Yosemite rangers: The drought has stressed the trees and made them more susceptible to the bark beetle. This morning I read an excellent summary of the problem on the NPS Yosemite site explaining the problem, and adding to what I already knew, and I thought I'd share what I learned.
The problem
As someone who has been visiting Yosemite for (pretty much literally) my entire life, the tree death in Yosemite Valley in the last five years has been staggering. Yosemite Valley, once a carpet of green, is now stained with large patches of rust-brown dead or dying trees. Scenes I've photographed for over 40 years are suddenly marred by these trees.
Going through my portfolio of Tunnel View images, I chose two with very similar compositions that illustrate the tree death. The first, my rainbow image from 2009, shows the green valley floor I remember. The second is a winter scene from 2016, and the tree death is obvious. And sadly, in the year-and-a-half since I took the 2016 image, I guess that at least twice as many trees have died.
Double whammy
The drought has clearly taken its toll on Yosemite's trees, both by killing the thirstiest outright, and by weakening many others until they become easy targets for a very opportunistic bark beetle. But the problem is not just about weak trees—it's also about healthy beetles, a lot of them. Consider that while the 2016 image was taken in late January, there is absolutely no snow in Yosemite Valley. Of course the drought has something to do with that, but the lack of valley snow in recent years can also be attributed to warming temperatures. As Yosemite's climate warms, much of the precipitation that once fell as snow now falls as rain.
Snow doesn't kill the bark beetle (it's still not cold enough), but an extreme freeze does. But as the number of sub-freezing days in Yosemite decline, the mechanism that kept the bark beetle in check gets out of whack. While Yosemite's evergreens have no problem handling an extreme freeze, each freeze kills many bark beetles. But fewer freezing days each winter means more bark beetles, and more bark beetles makes even healthy trees more prone to attack.
Triple whammy
And finally, America's long-time knee-jerk fire suppression policy has taken its toll. By thinning growth, consuming dead wood, and enabling regeneration, fire is a natural part of maintaining forest health. But for over a century, fires in Yosemite (and pretty much every other national park and forest) were doused as soon as they ignited because they were inconvenient, and they (temporarily) scarred the scenery.
Thankfully that misguided policy is largely behind us, but its legacy remains. We're left with too many trees competing for the available water. Some die of thirst, while many survivors lack the resources to stave off a beetle infestation.
What's being done
The National Park Service has undertaken the monumental task of removing dead and dying trees. Because it's impractical to remove all of them, the emphasis is on those trees that pose a hazard to people and property. Also, in developed areas the NPS has started prophylactic application of a (naturally occurring) pheromone that discourages the beetles from attacking susceptible trees.
No one knows for sure, but it's possible that the tree death will stabilize, or even start to decline over the next few years. While the current mitigation efforts might help stem the tide, the primary hope is that an equilibrium will be reached as the most susceptible trees die and forest health is restored through better management. Fingers crossed.

"Game changer" is most certainly a cliché, but every once in a while I get to use the term without shame. I used it when I switched from film to digital; again when I discovered that the Sony a7R (and now the a7RII) gave me 2- to 3-stops more dynamic range than my Canon 5DIII; one more time when I first turned the Sony a7S (since replaced with the a7SII) toward the night sky. And I think I'll trot it out once more for Sony's new 12-24 f4 G lens.
Of course I can only speak for the 12-24's change in my game—your results may vary. But as a landscape-only shooter who spends a lot of time in Yosemite, this lens allows me to capture images that were heretofore not possible with anything in my bag: Game changed.
Early last month, with only a few days to play with the new (and at the time, top secret) lens, I beelined to Yosemite. My first stop was Mirror Lake, a wide spot in Tenaya Creek that isn't technically a lake (it'll be dry by summer's end), but each spring is most definitely a mirror. The coveted feature here is Half Dome, which towers more than 4,000 feet above the glassy water, close enough to require some serious neck craning. Many times at Mirror Lake I've visualized a composition that includes Half Dome and its reflection, only to be thwarted because even at its widest, a 16-35 lens isn't wide enough.
Since my days with the lens were limited, I wasn't able to time my visit for interesting weather or some celestial event. No worries, I rationalized, even on Yosemite's standard blue-sky days, I can always count on warm, late afternoon light bathing Half Dome—not spectacular, but reliably nice.
I arrived at the lake about an hour before sunset and immediately started seeking out compositions to put the new lens to the test. I can't tell you how thrilled I was to mount the 12-24 on my a7RII, put my eye to the viewfinder, and see all of Half Dome and its reflection with room to spare. It wasn't long before I zeroed in on the scene you see here (that required me to balance atop a rock about three feet from the shore, tripod 10 inches deep in frigid snowmelt).
As luck would have it, just as the light started to warm, a few clouds drifted down from the north, so I quickly adjusted my composition and waited for them to slip into my composition. They were moving quite fast, leaving a window of just a few seconds when they filled the sky without being seriously truncated by the border. With composition, exposure, and focus set, I clicked a half dozen rapid-fire frames before the clouds started drifting out of the frame.
This was just my first stop with this lens. On the walk back to my car I stopped for a shot that I shared a few weeks ago; that night, and again the next morning, I tried it at a favorite El Capitan View with great success (to be shared in a future blog). And before returning home, I discovered a completely unexpected use at Yosemite Falls. Needless to say, I've already ordered this lens—I expect to see it next month.

This summer it will be 13 years since I lost my dad to Alzheimer's disease. He would have turned 87 next month, and I have no doubt that his body would still be going strong if the Alzheimer's hadn't taken over. Sadly, it's difficult to fully appreciate a parent's influence until they're gone. We're certainly aware of the love, wisdom, advice, discipline, tears, and laughs while we're in the midst of growing up, but it takes being a parent to fully appreciate our parents' influence on the adults we become.
Dad was a United Methodist minister who literally practiced what he preached. In 1965, when Martin Luther King issued a plea to clergy to join him, Dad borrowed money and flew across the country to march with Dr. King in Selma, Alabama (he was on national TV getting arrested). His was an inclusive theology that respected all religions: I can remember Dad preaching at the local synagogue on a Saturday, and reciprocating in our Sunday service by opening his pulpit to the rabbi. And I've lost track of the number of homeless people, including families with young children, we housed while they tried to get back on their feet.
More than the values he instilled, so many of the things that define me today are directly attributable to my dad's influence. My love of sports and sense of humor for sure. And when asked how I became a photographer, I have to cite Dad. My standard answer has always been that Dad was a serious amateur photographer whose 80-hour work week offered too little time to pursue his passion, so he made up for lost time on our summer family vacations—I grew up believing that a camera was just a standard outdoor accessory. But I think his influence goes deeper than that. More than simply modeling camera use, Dad instilled his appreciation of nature's beauty, and his longing for its soothing qualities.
Our vacations were, without exception, camping trips—always tent-camping, though in the later years we splurged on a used, very basic tent trailer (no kitchen, bathroom, or any of the other luxuries available in today's tent trailers). A few times we (Dad, Mom, my two brothers, and I) hit the road for a longer camping trip, one summer taking a month to camp all the way across the country, another summer venturing into the Canadian Rockies. But usually we took advantage of the mountain scenery (always the mountains) closer to our California home.
Of these locations, Yosemite was the clear favorite. Marveling at the Firefall from Camp Curry and Glacier Point, waiting in lawn chairs at the Yosemite dump for the bears to arrive for their evening meal (really), rising in the dark for a fishing expedition to Tuolumne Meadows, family hikes up the Mist Trail to Vernal and Nevada Falls, are just a few of the memories that I only realize in hindsight formed my Yosemite connection.
My favorite Dad photography story happened when I was about ten. It involves an electrical storm atop Sentinel Dome, and his desire to get the shot that was so great that it trumped common sense. As his ignorant assistant, I stretched to hold an umbrella high above Dad's head to keep his camera dry. (In his defense, as Californians, lightning was a true novelty that trumped full appreciation of its dangers.) We didn't get the lightning, and more importantly, it didn't get us. But what I remember more than anything about that day was Dad's excitement when later that afternoon he was able to photograph a rainbow arcing across the face of Half Dome.
This story has achieved family legend status, and we've felt a special connection to Sentinel Dome as a result. When it came time to scatter Dad's ashes, Sentinel Dome was the obvious choice.
One more thing
I have the reputation for being very lucky where photography conditions are concerned: The clouds that part just as the moon rises, the snowstorm that blankets Yosemite Valley just as the workshop begins, the rainbow arcing across the Grand Canyon. In our family we like to believe that Dad is somehow up there pulling some strings. It's just the kind of thing he'd do.
I love you, Dad.

On Saturday, with little fanfare, Alex Honnold stunned the climbing world when he free-soloed El Capitan in Yosemite, the world's largest granite monolith. (What's the big deal? From this image, you can clearly see that it's downhill all the way….)
But seriously…
Speaking for all non-climbers, Alex Honnold didn't just stun the entire climbing world, he stunned the entire rational world. Soaring three-thousand feet above Yosemite Valley, El Capitan is the Holy Grail of climbing. Among climbers, if you've summited El Cap, you've made the Major Leagues.
First conquered by Warren Harding in 1958, today dozens of climbers dot El Capitan's vertical surface on any non-winter day with reasonable weather in the forecast. But until Saturday, all who scale El Capitan do it with ropes and a virtual hardware store worth of climbing aids. Most require multiple days to summit.
Alex Honnold chose to ascend El Capitan unencumbered by ropes or safety hardware of any sort (free climbing uses ropes for safety only; free-soloing is completely sans rope), scampering up the shear granite the old fashioned way, using only his hands and feet like a kid climbing a tree in his backyard. Even more astonishing, he accomplished his feat in less than four hours.
I'm not a climber, and in fact have a difficult time getting within three feet of any un-railed vertical drop greater than thirty feet. But I've always lived vicariously through climbers, devouring climbing books, videos, and documentaries just to marvel at their accomplishments. And for years Alex Honnold has been the climber I've followed most closely, not just because he's the best (he is), but also because of our common affinity for Yosemite, and the fact that my daughters when to high school with him (they weren't close friends, and I was a Honnold fan even before I knew this connection).
I also admire Alex Honnold not only for his skill and accomplishments, but for his humble demeanor (I suspect that he'd prefer climbing in complete anonymity) and quiet wisdom. And though we've never met, I can't help worrying a little about him when I think of the number of mistakes I make with my camera—"Oops, I'm still at ISO 3200 from last night's Milky Way shoot"; "Crap, I forgot to orient my polarizer"; "Did I remember to focus?" (I could go on)—and realize that for Alex Honnold, even one small mistake likely means death. I mean, even if I knew with absolute certainty that missing my exposure by just 1/3 stop would cause my camera to explode, I'm pretty sure I'd still be dead long ago.
So hats off to you, Alex Honnold, here's wishing you many happy years as the world's greatest living climber.
