Title: Yosemite Valley Monday
Post by: HSakols on January 18, 2016, 08:43:43 pm
It was a beautiful afternoon in Yosemite Valley.  After some morning rain, the clouds lifted.  Tonight it supposed to get colder and snow is predicted for the Valley floor.  Here is the classic Valley View.

Very nice shot of the formation formally known as "Half Dome".  :)

Congratulations on a great capture. The cloud around El Capitan and the moon above Half Dome are a great asset.

I like the contrast between the naked and rough rock face on the left, and the smoother mountain on the right, covered with snow.

Nice image you should try some stiching to give the viewer a little more of the landscape

Nice! Having the moon in the photo sets it apart.

As I understand it, "Yosemite" is copyrighted only if you include the phrase "National Park" after it.
Of course, the copyright holder is NOT the U.S. National Park System.   :'(
