Description
Yosemite Valley (yoh-SEM-i-tee) is a glacial valley in Yosemite National Park in the western Sierra Nevada mountains of California, carved out by the Merced River. The valley is about 8 miles long and up to a mile deep, surrounded by high granite summits such as Half Dome and El Capitan, and densely forested with pines. A multitude of streams including Tenaya, Illilouette and Bridalveil Creeks join in the valley, and flow out of the valley's mouth as the Merced River, which eventually flows to the Pacific Ocean. The valley is renowned for its natural beauty, and is widely regarded as the centerpiece of Yosemite National Park, attracting visitors from around the world.

When we were living in California for over twenty years, we went to Yosemite many weekends a year, and spend a week or more there during some vacations. Even on our Honeymoon, we spent three days there as part of our trip to places up Highway 49 through areas where prospectors mined a lot of the gold in California.

Part of the enhancement was using Photoshop Brushes to create brush strokes in some areas.

Bob, Fantastic scenic photo that is so inviting to look at. It is one of those rare photos that when you look at it you feel some type of emotion in this case relaxation, a sense of calm, beauty. Great details of the water gently running over the rocks and splashing around with a small bit of white water. Remarkable details in the rocks in the foreground and great details in the background also. Beautifully enhanced quality in this remarkable photo. Excellent photo, fav, voted and google promoted
