Beautiful image ...

B&W or color. What can be said about the impact of this park. It makes one want to be there more often by this view.
03/15/2009 02:56:45 PM
Great composition and nice understated PP. Well done!

Beautiful scenery, I really like the way the cliffs/rocks look. Nice foreground interest, an overall good composition.
03/14/2009 11:52:06 AM
Weird, the foreground looks straight but beyond the first tufts of grass everything looks like it needs straightening!
03/13/2009 07:54:59 PM
I really like the perspective, the colours are fantastic

Yosemite is beautiful, you did a good job in presenting it to us.
03/13/2009 03:23:14 PM
I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1124 images, I gave 31 of them a 9. Your image was one of those 31.

Yosemite is one of those places that is photographed so much, yet so badly by lots of people, thinking that the magnificence of the location can be captured by a point and click. Your photo on the other hand shows a much more thought out capture, nice low viewpoint, large depth of field, nice composition. Makes me wish I was there seeing Yosemite for myself.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.
03/13/2009 02:01:29 PM
fore ground is just a bit dark imo
03/13/2009 01:50:50 PM
There is not an ugly spot in Yosemite! Majestic vista, although I wonder why the reeds are the central aspect of this shot.
03/13/2009 12:54:08 PM
excellent composition, enough sky, land and colors aren't pushed to much...very balanced
03/13/2009 12:43:35 PM
Nice landscape!

03/13/2009 02:23:15 AM
nice overall pic. The same spot, one step to the right would have a better balance IMO.
03/13/2009 12:03:47 AM
An unusual view, made stronger by the foreground. Good work here.
03/12/2009 11:40:36 PM
