Painterly Photography

Siesta Lake Forest Reflection, Yosemite National Park, California

Siesta Lake Forest Reflection, Yosemite National Park, California

My mom had never been up to the Tioga Pass and I had only driven through once before so we spent most of our third day stopping everywhere shooting pictures. I remembered Siesta Lake from my first visit in 2004 so I had always wanted to revisit and try some oil painting-like water reflections. It was pretty muddy around the lake so I didn’t have much room to operate given that I didn’t have any hip waders so I slapped on my 70-200mm lens with a teleconverter to give me additional reach for this reflection of the opposite shore line.

    Very nice, Richard. I have been drooling ever since to started showing your Yosemite photos. It’s been awhile since I’ve been.
