Cathedral Peak and the Upper Lake

From a 5 day trip this past September. The light was great

throughout the trip, but was at its best here...

Gorgeous. 7/7

I can just smell the fresh brisk air. Beautiful shot.

Fantastic !

Nice color and light. Very wonderful place and situation. Excellent work. Regards.

Excellent image, great colors.

Anish, beautiful capture. I love your composition,light and colors. Best wishes.

Beautiful!!! I think we should share the place locations too. Maybe we are somewhere near, but dont know such mind-blowing places. Truly fantastic picture.

Wonderful colors.

Great picture!! Splendid colors. Great light. I would also love to look at another version of this picture. How about including more sky and trimming the foreground? Basically I would like to move the camera a bit upward.

Regards.

Unfortunately, the only other version i have had the camera pointing a little to the left, which i discarded as the lake got pushed too far to the right. I stood at that spot for about an hour, watching the light and waiting and clicking away. i've realized i have the bad habit of picking one composition and not moving the camera after that. Perhaps if i had tried what you suggested, and even some other variations, i might've come away with some other good shots. thanks,

Beautifull scene Anish, I like very much the hole composition, looks like you had great light conditions, and you worked and captured it very well. I saw another great photograph of the same theme here on PN, http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=2575938, must be a fantastic place to shot on sunrise/sundown, I would love to go there with my camera and portable HD! 8^), fantastic show, regards, Rafael

thanks ferrando. i looked at the other picture, and it is amazing. This is a very photogenic spot, as are many, many places in the Sierra!

This is amazing! I can provide no critique. I am just enjoying the picture, imagining I were there. THANKS!

Beautiful light. I have camped out at near this spot, but the sky was rather plain when I went there. I have plans to visit this location again. Along with Halfdome, Cathedral peak is one of the most photogenic mountains in the park. Well captured photograph.

here I am with my comment right beneath Patel's.:) simply wanted to say that this exposure is a lot better than her sister you have on the same page. it all comes down to good light.

Just came back again to admire this picture!

Wauuu.. love it !! superb !

 

all the best.
