p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Veil On the Gates


Hello All,

Went over to Yosemite this Friday to see if the snow will continue to dump. Unfortunately it snowed in the higher elevations but rained in the lower and washed out most of the snow in the valley. I was hoping for nice rain clouds to catch some nice dramatic morning light but then the fog decided to come and veil the entire valley. So the curtains never lifted for me at the gates so it was very colorless. It however gave me a chance to practice my BW processing :P. A few weeks ago Matt Anderson posted a BW photo where he blended different BW exports targeting specific areas of the photo. I decided to give that a try. This is a 3 exposure TK masked blend, then 3 more exports using NIK Silver EFX targeting the fog area, tree line and water+rocks. Blended using layered masks in CS 5.

It would seem this particular trip to Yosemite is all black and white.

C&C Welcome,

Jason

Hey Jason,

A nice shot, interesting, though I do wish the fog was covering all of the trees and not just at the tops. Course, fog, like most weather doesn't listen very well...

Great imaging, Jason. I think all the action here is in the top two thirds, and that clump of grass looms quite large in the foreground. Perhaps a crop just above the grass will do it.

Great title. The fog and B&W conversion accentuated the mood you captured.

Wonderfully captured.
I somehow like the misty fog covering up to the top of trees rather than covering the whole scene.
That gives much more romantic and mysterious mood here as the tile indicates!
Thanks.

This is fantastic. The foreground grabbed me right away. The cloud cover is too neat for words. Nice job.
