632 - Two for One

An old photo, taken years ago. This was just a small wide spot in a tiny branch of the river. I put the camera right on top of the water to make it look like a lake. I stitched two vertical shots to get the wide angle I needed to include the clouds top and bottom.

Tranquil, yet dramatic, scene. Great job on the stitching. Great screen saver option!

Looks great, Gary, with a perfect reflection and a fine stretch of water leading back to the mountains.

ANOTHER example of "spectacular tranquility"! But I think this one is leaning more toward the spectacular side than your last post. Great clouds, great mountains, and a perfect mirror of a reflection. Your decision to go for the stitched verticals to get all the clouds in was a smart decision.

Beautiful reflection shot, Gary! What I particularly find interesting is the placement of the cloud above the mountain on the right. It almost appears like smoke coming out of a volcano. Great details throughout, nice colors, and perfect exposure. Well done. :smile:
