Have you ever seen something that grabs your attention and stands out, something so amazing that you must take a picture? This is the way I often feel.  Whenever I travel, camp, hike, or explore a new area I often take pictures of random objects more than people.  People are amazing but sometimes random objects fascinate me.

Many of my friends make fun of me saying-

"Brian, Did you travel with any people?" 

"Did you camp with any people?"

To avoid criticism I have included more and more people in my photos, however I just created a photo book that features some of the random objects I found fascinating during my travels.

The photo book is  called "Objects"  It celebrates the random objects I have taken pictures of in my adventures.

Tuolumne Meadows is the largest of all the campgrounds in the Yosemite National Forest.   It contains 304 campsites for Rvs or tent campers.  And it also contains Bears.  Although we never saw one.  Food storage is mandatory in the park and campers that attract bears can be fined up to $5000 dollars.   If the local wildlife doesn't discourage you then I would highly reccomend this campsite.  It is located at 8500 feet near the Tioga Pass.  The elevation is much higher here then in the valley floor of Yosemite which means a cooler temperature and beautiful views of the meadow.  Nearby Lyell Fork has good fishing for trout.  Reservations are accepted and you should reserve several months in advance as Yosemite is very popular.
