Eastern Sierra - Spring Fly Fishing & Scenery

May 2010

I spent the first weekend of May enjoying the majestic grandeur of the Eastern Sierras, fly fishing and photographing, with friends. The desert scenery on the drive from Los Angeles was amazingly beautiful, with numerous wildflowers in bloom, so, I just had to stop and take photos along the way...
