Yosemite Valley View +1 Raven

cfrey6

Here is a little different twist on an iconic Yosemite shot. This is Valley View, which has been photographed thousands and thousands of time. How to make it different? Add 1 raven and there you have it.

I like it very much

Most excellent. I would have tried to bring a little shadow detail out in the raven, but that doesn't mean I would have been successful. The comp here is outstanding. Great job.

A perfect way to change an old view. I like it a lot.

This is definitely an awesome new take on a famous view. I love the little guy there. Great catch!

Cool shot.

Beautiful.

Great idea. As previously mentioned, I think that brightening up the Raven a little bit would make it even better.

Good Stuff.

Great take and composition. I agree with KDog, maybe a little lightening on the crow to bring out some details in the feathers.

Well done! Most definitely a nice way to change such a frequently photographed view. I agree about the lighting, though--would like to see a big brighter and more detailed raven. Still, it's a great image!

This is one of those once in a lifetime shots. I do think however that if you take some time and effort to reprocess this you could turn it into a really spectacular image. clap
