Half Dome from Olmstead Point
Late June, 2008. I was driving through Yosemite NP on my way back to San Francisco. I stopped briefly at Olmstead Point and snapped this photo with my iphone. The smoke from the forest fires created this blue haze over Half Dome. I brought this image into Lightroom and adjusted the black and white points, and bumped up the clarity and vibrance. No crop-this is full frame. In PS Elements I applied the rough pastel filter and resized it for the web. The original had a lot of noise, but I think that it enhances the painting effect.
