Garden of the Gods + REPOST
Had a quick trip to the garden of the Gods over the weekend and thought it would be a great opportunity to do a pano. You perhaps have seen a thousand shots from the same location but still wanted to post a few .. thanks for your c&c as always ..

This place lends itself well to a panoramic image, Soubhik. The second pano. is by far the best!
I like how you were able to keep detail in the full moon and in the monolith. I prefer the second over the first because of more landscape, even though the moon is a bit smaller. That version suffers from haloing where the first one does not.
And of course, the jay looks real good. Nice light and environs! You had a very decent outing on this day.

I really like the pano images Soubhik...and like John like the second one best...for me because of the light on the peaks.

Thanks a lot for your comments and suggestions.
John - I can also see quite a bit of halo on #4, will reprocess and do a repost.

Very nice! I'll echo John in that the second pano is also my favorite of the two!
