    Default After the storm!

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    This is from earlier in the week at Yosemite NP... I was surprised by the snow and hail storm so late into May but did not mind as Yosemite is always spectacularly beautiful after the storm! The setting for this image was -

    7D, 17-40mm @17mm with a graduated ND on Gitzo/Giottos
    1/80 sec, f/22, Manual, Evaluative metering, AEB comp: -2/3, ISO: 200.

    For post processing, used ACR and some selective adjustment of the sky and the fg. Hope you like it...

    Hi Indranil,

    Nice image of a classic scene. The clouds make the image, but I would boost contrast some.

    Dan summed it up well.

    Great, classic composition that always exceeds with the right weather as is the case here and with the added contrast and s/h tweaks, looks great. Nice work.

    Indranil, very nice scene. The clouds are great. I like Dave's repost best with the increased details in the clouds and added contrast. Nicely seen and photographed.

    Beautiful shot. Clouds add a lot. Good work with the ND filter.
