Red 3 Panorama
Today I hiked up Red Mountain #3 for sunset, and took this big pano from the summit. This is 5 shots stitched with AutopanoPro.

SEE THE BIG VERSION HERE

I got some other photos too today: http://www.widerange.org/gallery.php?gallery=redmountain

I'm new to the whole pano thing, but I'm definitely enjoying it now that I have some decent software to make the stitching easy.

Nice stuff here, Jack. I've always been intrigued by this area. I especially like 941. It's got a wonderful painterly quality to it.

Very nice Jack, really like the big version. Some great light on the peaks and nice fall colors in the valleys. I've always been intrigued by Red Mt.

They look great. Looks like a perfect day to be out for fall color.

What a magnificent view! Nothin' quite like the Red Mountains.

Jack: Fantastic images, as usual! I've been using AutoPano for a while and I love it. It's idiot proof, which I require.

Great stacked effect and dripping with color. Could use a bit more sky, IMHO.

Jack, these are just sick! Awesome pano's; 941 and 943 terrific. I'd have loved to see the 940 pano with the light in 943, but I guess you can't have everything. Thanks for the great images on conditions in the area as we will be down that way starting tomorrow and these really have me itching to get going.

Jack, this panorama and the other images at the link are superb! Out of curiosity, are you increasingly shooting digitally instead of with the 4x5?

Thanks all for your comments!

Brett - I have been shooting a lot of digital this summer; I've been spoiled by the lighter weight and the ability to take lots of different shots quickly. On this hike, though, I did bring and shoot the 4x5. I think I got a good one with it, but I won't have the film back for a while.

Incredible image! Love the colors and the details in the big version really stands out.
