Hi gang....had a day and a half to hike around areas of Yosemite. First time there and realized the camera could no way capture the vast scenes there. In any case, here are some shots and I intend on returning in June when the water is flowing. A guy could probably shoot water for a week ! :D

    Love #2 with the people in it for scale. Wish I was one of those people walking on that path right now!!

    Excellent set, and you really made the most of the conditions. I really like the mood of #5. Great comps on all of them.

    I had the chance to visit Yosemite for my first time for a few hours but I decided against it because it would have only made me frustrated, hopefully I'll be able to visit it sometime this winter.

    Beautiful series. I especially love Number 5,7,19, they are more intimate than the majestic shots.

    As someone else said, wow!! If you can late April early May is the best for water.

    Nice set of pics. Thanks for sharing them!

    I was just out there today shooting along the valley floor and hiked up to Vernal Fall. I was also out there about three weeks ago and shot roughly what you did for #2 (except mine didn't come out even close to what you have...nicely done).

    Was #4 shot from Taft Point?


    The place you shot #10 from is very popular for sunset shots. Warm evening light can hit the face of El Capitan and make it really light up nicely! It's also a great place to shoot in the winter.

    If you'd tried that spot about three weeks ago, you likely would've been disappointed. The water was higher/rougher and reflection shots weren't as crisp/clean.

    What an absolutely FABULOUS set of shots!! clap.gif The B&W treatment in #4 is great...makes it look like the morning fog is burning off as the sun begins to rise. Also love the colors in #5 and #10. I've been to Yosemite a few times, the last time on my honeymoon - your pictures bring back wonderful memories! iloveyou.gif

    Thanks so much for sharing!
