Lower Yosemite Falls with tourists. One of the few winter storms we've had this year. It was on my bucket list to see Yosemite in the snow and I wasn't disappointed.

Canon 5d,M3,ISO400, 82mm, f/16, 1/60 sec.

Thanks in advance for any comments or critiques.

The snow accents are perfect. You also might crop from below to just above the heads and from the right to remove most of the green tree.

The sense of vertical scale you captured is amazing. Very nice!

Beautiful moment…before the snow tumbles off the trees. The vertical scale, mentioned already, is stunning… lotta volume in those big tall Ponderosa’s. The falls plays tricks with my eyes…as if it were moving. Great soft light.

Love the verticality in the shot, Kathy. The scale and color provided by putting the people in the shot only adds to this wonderful take on YNP. Very nice.

Beautiful scene, with a nice mix of green and white; the waterfall is an added bonus. The vertical perspective is great and a bit mind boggling to someone from the plains :). The bottoms feels a bit cramped to me; just a hair more room there would be nice.
