Talk about good timing. With the centennial of the National Parks Service occurring this year, photographer Binh Danh has been putting together a sizable portfolio of modern daguerreotype photographs of the nation’s parks over the last several years. In all, he’s shot 15 parks, but he’s best known for his images of Yosemite. Take a look at a series of Danh’s daguerreotypes taken in Yosemite below. For more on his work, click here. Read an extensive interview with Danh about his Yosemite project here. Listen to an audio interview Danh did with NPR while you peruse his work.
