Theme: Landscape - Half Dome & River Merced
Earlier this week I spent a day photographing at Yosemite NP. It still feels like Autumn there in the valley although the upper reaches are closed out because of snow. The river has very little flow and not yet frozen and is ideal for getting reflections of the major rock faces in the park. Over the years, I probably have taken many hundred images of Half Dome but this time it was different... with lengthening shadows of the afternoon it is sometime hard to get correct exposure so I tried multiple exposures and merged it together in CS4. The nice contrast gave me the idea to use it as b/w in Ansel Adam's style! Applied few adjustment layers, lens vignette and final usm. Hope you like it...
