Tunnel View

This is the quintessential Yosemite image known as Tunnel View, made famous by Ansel Adams.  It's the first thing you see after traveling through a long tunnel before arriving in the valley from the South and it's simply breathtaking.  El Capitan is the large stone monolith on the left, Half Dome is off in the distance in the center, and the waterfall is Bridalveil Falls.  I captured this image in 2011, about an hour before sunset, and the clouds opened up for only a couple minutes to perfectly illuminate Bridalveil Falls. LIMITED EDITION PRINTS Printed with archival pigment inks on professional Epson Premium Luster Photo Paper, these prints are signed with the edition number in the border below the image and include a certificate of authenticity.   LIMITED EDITION ALUMINUM PRINTS Aluminum prints are created by infusing archival pigment inks into specially coated sheets of aluminum and sealing the image with a high-gloss finish.  Because the image is infused into the surface and not on it, images take on a magical luminescence with vivid colors and tremendous detail.  The scratch-resistant surface is waterproof and easy to clean, and these prints have the highest possible archival rating.  Depending on the size, aluminum prints include a 1/2" float mount or 3/4" inset aluminum frame attached to the back, pushing the print away from the wall so it appears to float, and making it easy to hang.  Aluminum prints are signed on the back with the edition number and include a certificate of authenticity. NOTE Signatures shown on images are for copyright protection only and do not appear on printed images.  Never hang prints in direct sunlight.
