Nice high altitude summer scene. I do find the fence slightly distracting, and because there is hand-of-man, this image actually belongs in the Man and Nature Gallery. I like the shape of the lake, and you have enough foreground to anchor the image. The color and processing looks good to me.

Jerry,

I too like the panoramic view and presentation here. Good color, exposure and processing. The only nit I have Preston mentioned as well and that's the fence. My own guideline/saying is, "If you're going to include something, do it on purpose, otherwise don't include it." In other words, I would want to see more of the fence (assuming it's worth including) or none at all. Not a huge deal, just something to think about. I do think you did very well with the stitch.

Thanks for sharing.

Lon
