Day2- Yosemite the beautiful
Must be viewed Large On Black
Ok now im going to ramble..
This is the famous and much photgraphed tunnel view at Yosemite. It is amazing..the view and the feeling you get from this vista point cannot really be captured by camera..one has to be there to really take it all in.It is a breathtaking and inspiring view. All of Yosemite is just unbelievably gorgeous..after all it was Ansel Adams backyard.
The weather was overcast all day and the light really wasnt good. This was the only time towards the end of the day that the clouds started to clear up and the sun peeked out. On the left of the valley with the last light falling on it is the monstrous granite monolith- The El Capitan..on the right is Bridalveil falls and in between at a distance is Half dome.
There are so many photographs of so many places we look at that wow us....and we feel like going there to visit and when we get there we always get the feeling that it doesnt really look as good as it does in the photographs...I havent really come across many photos of this place that really gave me a sense of how amazing it is looking down from this point.
Also, I think this is the most time i have spent on post processing on any picture ever..and i still cant get it to look the way i want it to look.
I can see a lot of flaws in this but i have run out of patience . I will have to go back there sometime and spend more time at the park and hope that the weather and the elements cooperate. If you want to check out some awesome shots of this place check out this guys website..he has some amazing shots- philhawkinsphoto.com/main.php.
