Lamar Valley Yellowstone

Unread post by John David Cubit »

The late spring snows of 2012 had just melted, and the bison were grazing on the new grass.

I love it. Is the image post processed by any chance. I find the foreground tad too sharp for my liking.

With best regards,
Sury

Thanks Sury,
The foreground is sharp because I cropped out the closer, out-of-focus part of the image--there was too much vegetative foreground in the original. Since the remaining plants don't contribute much, but distract, I'll try some treatment of them to make them less apparent. Thanks for your comments.
(Sounds like we both like Karl Popper. Too bad more of the world isn't into his logical approach.)

John,
It is indeed a tragedy and given the capacity of our brain power a travesty that we let emotions rule over
intellect. That would be a topic for good "spirited" discussion with our favorite libations. May be members of
this forum can plan on a "reunion" sort. :)

Grand scene, it probably looked the same a thousand years ago. Nice photo.
