It looks to me like you've applied some movement blur post capture and it is effective I think. I like the shadows on the dinghies and throughout the image. Well done, Michele

This is too over processed to me. As one who frequently spends summers in yosemite and frequently enjoys this view, I think a lighter hand would have done it more justice.
I do admire the dramatic clouds, and it is nevertheless a nice picture. 7

Fabulous location.... the sky is a tad over processed for my taste, but good effort.

I found it hard to find a focal point in this shot, with the sweep of trees, chunks of rock and thick cloud, it's like it's simple but too much at the same time. Not sure if that's entirely a bad thing though as it did make me study the image; it is well-composed, the moody sky looks great and the scenery itself is gorgeous. It is a very good shot generally.

Just make a few tracks, Jack!

A superb HDR image. I love the forest, mountains, waterfall and dusting of snow. The clouds will be too overcooked for the average DPC voter. But, I love the detail and think this should finish at 7 for you. 10

What a beautiful vista! IMO over-processed clouds are fighting with the nicely processed foreground!

I would have liked this a whole lot better without the over-the-top HDR treatment. Can't wait to go there someday.
