Gate To Yosemite Valley Photo

Photographer’s Note

I'm not sure what is the name for this location. I called it The Gate to Yosemite Valley (I might got this name from somewhere). This is one of the most famous and popular place at Yosemite. This spot is located on Highway 140 near the 120 junction. I chose sephia for this image because it was raining and heavy fog on that day. The original image color was mostly gray and dull. For this image, I stitched with 5 images using autostitch software

The stitching worked very well and I like the sephia-effect: it gives the nice place a little mistique kind of look.
Great job, TFS.

Impressive, Phuoc !
This is a breathtaking image like some we see in the movies. it reminds me the Far West !
I doubt it the otion for sepia was good... maube the full colored version have a stronger impact. The place is so beautiful that deserves it.
Anyway, it's worth a full smile !
Best regards,

Celso

Hello Phuoc,
Good panaroma. I think the choice of sepia was an good idea. This valley is looking great with beautiful landscapes.

Phuoc,

I know you mark this as a black and white and it is with a tinge. I think this image would be more powerful if it was more black and white and less yellow. The capture is a great one though - nice work.
