Between Canyon & Tower (in Yellowstone)

Not sure if this is Dunraven pass. But it was a welcome stop after

some nerve racking mountain driving. A number of serious animal

watchers were peering through their spotting scopes at wildlife on the

distant hills. I watched for a while and then realized the light was

what I was interested in, so I got out my camera!

Dave, this is even better than the one I saw earlier this a.m. I really like the light play here. The mountain range is more evident too, IMHO. Very well done.

 

By the way, I want to thank you and Jeff L. for catching my boffo-horizon on my east Glacier image. It was a bust that I flat missed when working it up. I went back, looked at it, reworked it, and reposted the image. Good eye, Amigo! Cheers! Chris

Thanks Chris. This is one of those shots I keep coming back to in Photoshop to see if I can get it just right. It seems a challenge because of what I'm trying to do with the shadows; to make the lighted areas stand out more. It keeps bringing me back to trying to work out the kinks in my color management - on some computers (e.g., my parent's LCD) the shadow areas are too dark. Strangely, they are a tad bit lighter on my computer than what we see here at photo.net. I've been noticing that when I upload images to photo.net they display a bit darker online. I have yet to figure that out. And, of course, I have no idea how other folks are actually seeing them on their computers. But complements like yours at least tell me I'm getting close;-)
