Dead Horse Point Panorama
Today’s image is comprised of four separate frames, stitched together to create a rather large panorama. Having completely forgotten I’d taken the series, I was anxious to work with them a bit to see what I could come up with. I burned in the bright sky in the upper-left, popped the color and contrast about [...]
Beartooth Butte
Though not nearly as dynamic as my last post, I thought a panorama would be a good follow-up. Taken a few days ago along the Montana/Wyoming border in the amazing Beartooth Mountains, this lakeside view is comprised of five separate images. Unfortunately, I forgot to remove my polarizing filter and it resulted in a darkening [...]
Vertical Moose
After yesterday’s plane picture, I thought I better take it back to nature. I hadn’t thought about the idea of vertical panoramas until my recent post in which two horizontal images were used to create single square composition. Of course, panos are typically meant to display an impressive breadth, one which is emphasized [...]
Placid Drift
I’ve been busy working through the images from my Smith River float, but there are over 1,300 and it’s taking longer than I had expected. In all that heap of photos, today’s choice is another that stuck out at me - it’s actually a vertical panorama, despite being square format as well. The scene [...]
Camp Baker
I made it back from my rafting trip late last evening and slept as hard as I can remember. We had a wonderful time and couldn’t have asked for better weather. It snowed on us driving up to the Smith River, so we were prepared to be cold and wet the whole time, but the [...]
The Grazers
One last visit into the images from the trip up Shields Valley, this panorama shows most of the Crazy Mountain range and gives an idea of the surrounding landscape. This image was taken a bit earlier in the evening than yesterday’s post. The light was fairly flat across the scene, yet low enough to the [...]
Goblin Valley Pano
One of the neatest places I visited during my March 2006 trip to Utah was Goblin Valley State Park. I’ve posted a few images before, but I’m not sure any of them really capture the feel of this place. It’s not the type of geography that ‘wows’ you with its scale and immensity, [...]
