Curry Village Tents

Funny what I end up shooting in Yosemite… After an evening shooting last light on Halfdome (yawn), I wandered in to Curry Village, all a-buzz with tourists scurrying (like Deer Mice) to their little tent cabins. Quite the scene actually, perhaps the way the old mining towns felt, with groups of people exchanging the days’ stories on tent stoops.  Different languages drifting in and out like the breeze.  Slowly the cabins became occupied and the tents began to glow. I should have bracketed my exposures for HDR processing. The cabin walls are too hot and I could not recover the warm canvas tone. Perhaps I’ll take a light for some subtle painting effects too. Lesson learned for next time…
