Cropped from a portrait shot at 17mm on the Canon 1Ds with 17-40L at

f11, 1/15sec. Thanks for you reviews! Steve

Thats perfect mirror. The Mirror lake?

Not mirror lake, just a calm afternoon on the river. Steve

another 1 of ur outstanding work from the recent series. stunning color & breath taking reflection. symmetrical composition & fantastic light. &...the breath taking combination of deep blues with golden yellows.

So beautiful... never had the chance to shoot Yosemite on such a calm day. Excellent exposure and composition.

Beautiful scenery. Well done!

I love this picture so peaceful and calm. No wonder Ansel Adams had many shots done there.

What a shot! Superb image.The reflection is perfect on still river water. You are lucky to take a shot in such placid location.Hat's off.

Perfect tones, colors, superb reflection. If I had to nit-pick, I would like to see the top of the mountain unobstructed by the twig (minor issue). Regards, Carsten

A real powerhouse. Thanks.

Beautiful shot, beautiful colors !

wonderful scenery

Yup, I do like this a lot. The trees add depth to the shot. Hope you had the spot to yourself.

This one takes the cake: 7/7

great i would like to be there excellent pic regards gerolamo

I enjoyed your fall photo, very nice composition, color, lighting and DOF.  Very nice reflections also.  If I were to make any changes to this beautiful landscape photo, My critique would be to clone out/remove the water plants floating in the lower middle of the photo and maybe cut off / crop a bit more of the dark left side of the photo. If you put you your hand up in the middle of the photo almost half is dark and that is not the best part of the photo so by that crop you would bring right side over a bit more enhancing the beautiful points of the photo. Well done, take care.
