Yosemite_(Tunnel_View)_May09__016

The magnificence of this image can only be fully appreciated when viewed larger. Breathtaking well balanced scenery and from a great perspective. I'd love to see that waterfall a bit closer too, it looks like it has fantastic potential. Theres a couple of jet trails in the sky that I would consider cloning out, but its a very nice landscape. Well done Gregory!

Best Regards

Thanks Alf.  I think this was my widest shot of the tunnel view.  I am still getting used to using digital and the ability to crop.  I am used to E6, where for the most part, what you shoot is what you get.  I'm sure I could easily crop this to appear to be at a greater focal length that the 24mm shown here.

I agree that this image, being as great as it is, could benefit from a longer lens, since the u shaped valley covered with trees ocupies about 2/3 of picture area leaving almost no space for the other features.

Another thing is the streak of white vapor left by high altitude flying aircraft. I believe Photoshop should pay the airlines and the park some commissions for the software they sale to erase the disturbance from the photos... LOL!!
