A short series from Yosemite

[David Eckels]

I was working through some old jpeg images, trying to do non-destructive PP before archiving them. The shot choices from 2009, were inspired by what I remembered from Ansel Adams. PP probably strongly influenced as well, but then it may just be the subject matter and the choice of B/W.

And the last one.

Good stuff, though a bit oversharpened for my taste.

Really nice images and great clouds that add a lot to the images.  I really do like the black and white.  However, I do agree with Paulo--oversharpened and maybe over processed in other ways for my taste.  Still, I am glad you posted these.  Nice work.

These are great images, but there all of the Eiffel of Yosemite.  I have spent over two weeks hiking in the park and never saw this view!

That's the problem! You can't get these views if you're hiking Half Dome was from Glacier Point and the valley was from the scenic view just outside the Wawona Tunnel. I know they're iconic; that's why I took them. Just having fun. It is a great place.
