Shrouded Yosemite + Repost

The fog and clouds add some mystery and character to the view.  A suggestion may be to add some tonal contrast to bring out a little textural contrast in the clouds.

Very nice and moody, Mr. H.. I agree with Doug regarding the contrast in the clouds. You might also look at the contrast in the trees on the valley floor. I think that area could be punched up just a bit. I have to agree: The majesty of the scene from Tunnel View is one of the all-time greats.

A couple of days ago, Harley turned me on to a documentary film titled Valley Uprising. It is a film about the 50 year history of climbing in Yosemite Valley. It is a riveting film with some outstanding video and commentary by many of Yosemite's foremost climbers. Highly recommended.

Harley,

No doubt, an epic view, and like you, I will not hesitate to take the short jaunt up the hill to this spot, just to take it all in, and hope for something dramatic.

This is a classic take from here; the fog/mist changing second by second and this works quite well.  Especially cool that Half Dome is peeking through.  I might agree with some selective contrast adjustments, but this is pretty good as presented.

The bar is pretty high from this spot, but how can one go wrong here?  This works for me and takes me right there - wish I was there!

As iconic as it is, I've never been there.  I believe that is a character defect for sure.  I think this image fits with the rest of your images from your trip.  You have used a more high key, low contrast approach that I find very appealing.   The conditions here are outstanding as has been your work of late.  Another awesome Yosemite image for sure.

This captures the beauty and grandeur of this classic scene.  The winter conditions make this somewhat unique and the fog adds to the mystique.  Beautifully crafted!  

That's beautiful.  The waterfall really anchors this image.  There is lots to see in here, but that waterfall is the center.  Excellent comp and processing.
You got some great images from there.  Fascinating to see them all.

Harley, hard to make out where this is with all the fog.....

A wonderful take from the old tunnel spot. The processing is excellent too......
I have one from this spot several years back now that I really like that is a B&W conversion from Velvia LF.

The sighting and slight glimpse of 1/2 Dome is a good hunting for focal point. I think that is an icon the world looks for in any of these photos taken in around the tunnel view.
8-10 photogs sounds like the park was on limited entry compared to most days. As the sierras have been deluged this year with LOTS of snow and rain this spring should be a bonanza with vegetation, water flows, and wildlife all around......  

Another exceptional image from this snow event Harley. It's an iconic view for a reason, and the conditions are outstanding and well captured. 

Harley: the other posters have already stated the good points, so I'll take the easy way and "Ditto".  Richard

Beautiful and dramatic take on this iconic view. The hanging clouds are just awesome.You definitely sync'd your visit with some epic conditions. I agree with comments on increasing the contrast in the clouds. Personal taste but I can also see taking the exposure down a notch and increase the moodiness.

It's a great view, Harley, where the fog makes it a bit different from the conventional shot.  I too wonder if it's possible to pull a bit more  structure out of the clouds.  This fits in with an idea for a WC of well know Icons.  We all go there and take those images, we just tend not to show them (at least on NPN).

Thanks for the feedback. Made a couple of changes.
