Landscape Image of the Week for the week ending April 5th, 2013: Diane Miller - Yosemite Falls

[Daniel Cadieux]

Congratulations Diane!

Made a quick run to Yosemite in mid-February, hoping for the light show on Horsetail Fall. No luck there (not enough water for the "fall" to pop into virtual existence), but some clearing mist after a too-minor snowstorm gave me an excuse for a slightly different composition of Yosemite Falls.

Canon 5D III, 70-200 f/2.8 at 70, ISO 200, f/11, 1/60. Tripod. Too lazy to change to the 24-70, and I love extra pixels, so I shot a vertical pano (one aimed higher, one lower) and stitched in CS6 after basic LR4 raw processing.

Thanks, everyone! And thanks to Steve Kaluski for good suggestions on popping contrast and detail -- I didn't repost but did come up with a much improved image.

Congrats Diane a very deserving image

[John Ippolito]
