Very impressive b&w landscape indeed. The point of view is amazing. I love the high contrasts, particulary in the sky and on the rocks. This is well composed and really complex. Great photograph, it reminds Ansel Adams indeed.

Very nice. Capturing the majesty of an epic landscape like this one is not easy to do. Congrats.

Yup - something very familiar about this view, even though I've never been anywhere near it. You can indeed see why it's drawn photographers from the beginning of the art. This is a beautifully created example - though that sky is almost distracting! :D

Absolutely breathtaking. Truely an excelent tribute to Ansel Adams. The valley is such a remarkable place. Amazing sky.
I believe that waterfall is actually Bridal Veil Falls, Yosemite Falls is on the other side of El Capitan.
