Return to Yosemite

The waters of the Merced River and the gates of the valley as seen from Valley View in early August of last year. I have been lucky enough to be able to spend some extended time in this wonderful park during almost every year of my life. And it absolutely, positively never gets old.

 

A return to one of a series of images from the summer of 2012, now that I have a much better idea of what I'm doing in the digital darkroom. Taken within seconds of another shot that I uploaded to Flickr about 15 months ago. I'm kicking myself for not having the foresight back then to always shoot in RAW, and for not understanding at the time that the smaller the aperture for a landscape shot in micro four thirds, not necessarily the better. But this is much closer to how it would look if I were to shoot it today.

 

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy it.
