Yosemite - Old Suspension Bridge over the Merced

Posted by MontereyJohn (Salinas, California, United States) on 11 June 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This is another in the continuing series of film images shot at and around Yosemite National Park. This location is on the Merced River below Yosemite on the way back to the San Juaquin Valley. The old suspension bridge caught my eye.

I fiddled with this image trying to salvage it. It was shot at dusk looking into the twilight. I reduced the exposure, brought up the fill light and added a bit of vignetting. OK, but not great. But it is a scene I wanted to save.
