Going to Yosemite as a landscape photographer is like being a kid and winning a golden ticket to Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. The views here are probably some of the best in the world while still being very easily accessible. I can understand why Apple has named two operating systems after it: Yosemite and El Capitan.
But I’ll be honest: sometimes, it’s nice to put the landscape photography gear away and enjoy the nature around you.
I had so much fun with the Fujifilm X100T in Yosemite this time that I never even needed my Sony A7r. The camera is light enough to go hiking without killing yourself, making visiting places like this much more fun, and you can still get great photos.

These photos were all shot in JPEG. I usually use Provia or Velvia with Highlights -2, color -1, and Saturation 0 when shooting nature. I threw some VSCO and RNI film simulators on top.
