A group of amateur photographers, known in the period as "camera fiends," posed together in Yosemite Valley, a detail that sets this view apart from the many scenic records of the valley's granite walls and waterfalls. Late nineteenth-century tourism brought growing numbers of visitors to the valley after it came under state protection in 1864, and hobbyists with bulky plate cameras became a familiar sight along its trails. Images like this one capture the travelers themselves as much as the scenery, offering a record of how the valley was experienced and documented by its early visitors.
