Julie are you kidding me? I could look at this all month! This is an absolute treasure! And I am SO glad that you have featured the eastern side of the Sierras here. That stretch right through there (I think it is the Ansel Adams wilderness area east of yosemite) that you feature makes an absolutely marvelous background for the color, light and features of the water and tufas shown here in such a glorious yet mellow cast light. Put this composition altogether as you have done, and the entire image is a complete work of art. Nothing is out of place and everything feeds off of each other and lends to the entire mood. I love this one immensely! Thank you for treatig us to this great piece, Julie!
wow! lovely layered composition with sublime light and colour tones! i love how you composed this - there is excellent DOF, with each next layer of rocks taking the eyes in further - very well done!
