The sky was cloudless, so will have to reshoot this if I get the chance with some clouds. Dave

This is one of the more original compositions with half dome I've seen in a while. I like it.

Definitely the color version. Sunrises in Yosemite don't always offer the best photo ops, so good job. I'm headed there in about 10 days. Can't wait.

Hey Dave,

Nice job on your composition, a little creativity is always good. I like the B&W better here. The color version is nice, but the yellow around the sun seems too yellow, or not the right yellow if you will. Perhaps that part of the sky was recovered and pushed a little too much? Back off on it a bit, and I think I would like the color version more.

Thanks Jim for your comment and recommendation. I posted the edited version beneath the original. Is that enough lightening Jim?

I agree with Jim here. Nice composition here.

The edit is still off though. The yellow is too green and looks unnatural.

Thanks Scott. I did another edit. What do you think now? Dave

I also find your revamped color image very appealing. A different take on Half Dome.
