I recently hiked with a wonderful family to May Lake. Since the family was in excellent shape and willing to extend their adventure, we decided to visit the supremely more remote Raisin Lake for a picnic and a swim. Our swim was cut a little short by some thunder above, but we were able to enjoy a quiet excursion to one of Yosemite’s hidden gems. Here is a photo of the lake reflecting the clouds above Mt. Hoffman.

Photographing with a camera phone was once frowned upon as a lazy way out of making an image. With advancing technology, these phones are becoming more integral in everyday “outdoor” life. I am currently using the iPhone 5 with an 8 megapixel camera, and will share the world of Yosemite through my phone.
