Merced River and the El Capitan, This to me is like a gate to Yosemite Valley if you take the 140 to Yosemite Valley. This picture was taken with an Infrared filter from Cokin and stitched together with 2 images using autostitch software. I just started out with infrared photography and so far I love it.

Hi Phuoc,

Love the tones you have achieved .. it is like some hyper winter dream .. what was the line I used on Peter (pboehringer) when he did a Yosemite infared .. Like Bierstadt on hallucinogens .. With the stitching it is just wondrous .. into my favorites.

take care,

John

Hello Phuoc,
This is a wonderful place. I can feel the cold due to the B&W. Interesting way to make a wonderful place look scary. Well done.
Regards, Ramy.

amazing scenery, almost dream-like landscape, the clouds add to the mystery. well done, TFS.

It reminds me "Lord of Rings". :-)

Phuoc, I love your work. You shoot so many places I've been to and returned to, but I've never gotten quite what you do with the camera. Keep experimenting!

Amazing scenario here Phuoc..perfect as a paint..

best regards
Igor

Just stunning Phuoc, well done....Rick

Hello Phuoc,
I have just looked at all images of El Capitan here on TE, and I have to say this is my favorite. The composition is spot on, use of BW is great and the feeling of the image is just...mesmerizing. Wonderful work.
