Isn't Yosemite amazing? I fell in love with the place - that view out of the tunnel... stunning.

I love the photograph, but I think you'll lose point for having the person in the shot. Maybe if they were posed it would be different. Your lighting balance is superb! Did you use shadows/highlights on this shot?

Nice picture. If the foreground figure's hat hadn't camouflaged him amongst the stones it would have be the only 9 I gave. Still a solid 8.

Spot on. The inclusion of a single figure seems a bit odd for the travel guide market - crowds of folks yes, sometimes, but the one person lends a sense of a personal photograph, rather than an illustration. Great sense of scale, great composition. I would have liked the light a little warmer. 7

very nice photo. Would have been better if the person was doing something different.

Good job. This is a different perspective of an often photographed subject.

I was just there this weekend, wanted to take this same shot but it was to hazy and did not work. But you really hit it here, great shot =8

I like the image, but there is a problem with a halo around the top of the cliff that makes it look false, have you introduced this in post processing?
