375 DAYS - 365 PHOTOS - Photo 132, taken April 15, 2009, Yosemite National Park, California. One of my favorite places in the world — Yosemite National Park. This park is just jammed pack full of landscape photography opportunities. While living at Lake Tahoe I was fairly close to the historic park for three years. I often found while the landscape of the park is stunning, weather patterns often made for really interesting photography — even when the landscapes weren’t as dramatic as the iconic shots that are a dime a dozen out of Yosemite. 375 DAYS - 365 PHOTOS is a series of photographs from the archives of jonahkessel.com. Photographs span over eight years and include locations from all around the world. They fall in no particular order, but their own. For an explanation of why there are 375 days in this photo series instead of the traditional 365 days, see this link. To place bets on how many days will actually pass by the time it takes Jonah to post 365 pictures, click on this link.

365 DAYS - 365 PHOTOS - Photo 82, taken January 15, 2008, Banaue, Carson Valley, Nevada. An inversion layer in the Sierra Nevada over the Carson Valley. In meteorology, an inversion is a deviation from the normal change of an atmospheric property with altitude. It almost always refers to a temperature inversion, i.e. an increase in temperature with height, or to the layer (inversion layer) within which such an increase occurs. An inversion can lead to pollution such as smog being trapped close to the ground, with possible adverse effects on health. An inversion can also suppress convection by acting as a “cap”. If this cap is broken for any of several reasons, convection of any moisture present can then erupt into violent thunderstorms. Temperature inversion can notoriously result infreezing rain in cold climates. 360 DAYS - 360 PHOTOS is a series of photographs from the archives of jonahkessel.com.
