Title: Dawn, Yosemite Falls, Sunspot
Post by: Mjollnir on April 11, 2015, 05:29:20 pm

Yes, I know, done to death, and I almost never shoot the icons any longer when I'm there, but on this morning the light created an atmosphere that I found interesting.

Icon's sell.  And this is a unique rendering making it more valuable than the typical icon render that most tourists will get.  The true test is to bring it to market against your other work and see how well it sells compared to the alternatives.  I think you might find that you've got yourself a winner perhaps.  Looks great to me.

Thanks, everyone, and glad you like it.

I just noticed it looks a little bleached out in terms of color here at LL, but if you still dig it while it looks that way, it means a lot.

Icons in a new light are always fine and exciting.
