Stanislaus/Humboldt-Toiyabe NF - California

On 2 July 2023, my parents and I drove along State Route 108 in Stanislaus National Forest and Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest in California. I took photos with my cellphones and mirrorless camera. The photos are split into 2 blog posts. I also took 2 videos on my phones as well of the creek (which is extremely fast this year due to the extra heavy snowfall), which can be viewed here. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Autumn Foliage (Olympus Photos) - Humboldt-Toiyabe/Lee Vining

This blog post contains photos of Sierra Nevada aspen tree autumn foliage! On 15 October 2022, my parents and I went to Stanislaus National Forest, Humboldt Toiyabe National Forest, Lee Vining, Inyo National Forest, and Yosemite National Park in California. We drove on State Route 108, U.S. Route 395, and State Route 120 to look at autumn foliage. I took photos with my phone, my Olympus mirrorless camera, and my Canon EOS 5D Mark III camera. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Travel Tip: Do not speed on US-395 (and don't speed in general). California Highway Patrol frequently catch speeders this highway. My parents and I, when we visit Mono Lake and the Eastern Sierras, we'd always see cops pulling over speeders. I've also been told by other photographers and travelers that this is fairly common. Remember you are passing through rural towns out in the middle of nowhere... This is where the cops make their money. 😁 If your vehicle has cruise control, you can put it to good use on this highway (do so at your own risk, if you fall asleep with cruise control on, you can die).

In this blog post, I have part 12 of my photos from the trip. The photos are shot on July 7th, 2019. Photos are from Leavitt Falls Vista Point in Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest and State Route 108 in Stanislaus National Forest in California. These photos were all taken on my drive back home.

Message From The Photographer: If you've been following me on social media, you'd know I've been dealing with vision impairment and gradual vision loss since August 2018. The conditions are neurological, so my vision isn't impaired the same amount on a daily basis, but overall it seems to be going down hill. It has slowed down and made taking photos, processing photos, using computers, etc... very challenging and somewhat depressing. Some days it is impossible for me to take photos or process them. I know these photos are from a very long time ago, but I'm only just starting to get around in processing them as I'm only able to work on them at a very slow pace. I hope you can understand, and I I hope you enjoy viewing these photos.
