This feature requires that JavaScript be enabled and the Flash plug-in be installed.
Autumn, winter, spring or summer, Yosemite is magical. Giant granite spires and waterfalls, blue skies and clear air -- it's practically in Southern California's own backyard. The Times' Mark Boster spent a year photographing this most majestic of national parks, visiting favorite spots, studying the nature around him and watching the seasons unfold with their own special beauty.
