Photographing Yosemite National Park in March have questions.
1. Is there a best time of the year to photography here?
2. To photograph, are there any areas off limits or require permission?
3. To get to the signature "Yosemite" spots, is there any major hiking needed?
We are planning this trip for March and I'm doing my home work now. Google has provided some good answers and there are a few here that I'm not clear on yet. Well, I just want to get more opinions please.
Why so serious?
Yeah Yosemite is a zoo like the Grand Canyon is. In order to get anything different, or devoid of people you need to hump it quite a bit. Granted there is this thread too www.photographytalk.com/forum/editing-an...ew-deleting-tourists , but then you would still be getting the same generic shots. The biggest thing I would worry myself with is what the weather is going to be like in that area that time of year. It can change in a heart beat.

As far as needing to hike, the better places are certainly reached with more effort, usually the farther you go especially off the beaten trail is where you will find the better chances of a unique photo. It seems every time I've been to Yosemite it has been fairly crowded......
