In a wild and dangerous ascent,Dean Potter and his climbing partner Sean Leary set the speed record for climbing up the Nose Route of Yosemite Valley's El Capitan. The trust in each other's ability and judgement is absolutely essential, as a fall by either climber could have grave consequences for both.

THE WIZARD´S APPRENTICE - EXCERPT (Melloblocco 2012 invitation) from BERNARTWOOD on Vimeo.

Norwegian climber Magnus Midtbø has climbed a 9b route as one of few in the world. This video shows his extreme way of training in Oslo, Norway.

2 days in Joes from Ethan Pringle on Vimeo.

We bailed on the hot weather in Las Vagas for some blizzardy but crisp conditions in joes valley for a couple days in mid April. All the problems were filmed with my iPhone 4s... footage turned out ok no? I need some lens attachments.

Josh also sent Beyond Life, Jitterbug and Fiery Furnace but unfortunately my camera phone wasn't rolling or was running out of space during those moments. DOH!

Enjoy!

Yosemite Range of Light from Shawn Reeder on Vimeo.

I am a destination visual artist who specializes in photography, timelapse cinematography, & filmmaking.  I love to travel, so if you have a project in some far flung location, lets talk.

Yosemite National Park, the High Sierra, and the Eastern Sierra are some of the most beautiful places on earth. Ever since I serendipitously won a trip to Yosemite when I was 18, the beautiful Range of Light has captured my heart and become my home. Nothing brings me more joy than to share this life changing beauty with others.

Ever since I became fascinated with timelapse photography almost 2 years ago, after seeing the work of Tom Lowe, I’ve wanted to do a piece on Yosemite and the Sierra. Now after almost 2 years of shooting, I'm thrilled to share. I hope you enjoy my vision of my home, the majestic Yosemite & Sierra. Best viewed Full Screen with Sound :)

If you would like to license any of my clips or hire me to shoot for you, please be in touch.

Huge thanks to Kessler Crane and Lens Pro To Go. Without their help this piece would not have been nearly as good.

Also a huge thanks to all of you who help support me with your warm comments and continuing encouragement. It means more to me than you know.

I hope this inspires everyone to get outside and explore the beautiful outdoors, especially magical places like Yosemite National Park and the High Sierra. It's National Parks week and all of our national parks are free this week, so get outside and explore!
