Spring 2014 in the Sierra

In late May I made a solo trip up to the Sierra and Desolation Wilderness to do some fishing and take some photos. In a normal year the area would be packed with snow during May, however due to the lack of rain and snowfall over the winter, I had no problems getting to the area.

Because I’ve been going to this area for many years, I tend to get tired of taking the same photos repeatedly. What’s my recourse? I add an a ton of artistic effect to my images!
