As I was going through my collection, I came across these and having recently acquire a LR3,
I thought I will tweak the images a tad. Here are the results that are inspired by Almazer's posts,
Mike's comments about tweaking an image and the feedback I get on the forum.

With best regards,
Sury

Thanks for the wonderful reminder of how beautiful Yosemite is. It's been a long time since we've been there (before we had kids) and I can't wait to go back.

1 & 3 are great, despite the flare in the third.

Sury, you had such pictures and never posted them.
Superb shots. I would gladly hang the second one on a wall.

Excellent series hard to do as the place has been photographed to death. I'm actually ok with the flare!

Very nice images indeed.

I think that my favorite is the second shot in the second series.

With best wishes,

Thank you all. I am over whelmed by your kind words. It means a lot to me.
Doc, in those days, I seldom felt that I can take half decent pictures and therefore
did not post them. I think thanks to the forum, I have overcome quite a bit of my
under confidence and also learned a thing or two about "tweaking" the images. :D
Here are few more from the same set.

With best regards,
Sury

dear Sury i have seen your photos and i have to admit i am impressed you have got sharpness and there is good cloud and mist that add atmosphere to the images the sky was very blue when i visited there and we were on coach trip had to keep up with the crowd.
your images are smashing.

Just to echo Mike's comments - those last three are three more crackers :)
