73 Aug 21 Comment Debbie - OOOOOH a pano - good job!
I like the curvature of the water giving depth to the image and colors are wonderful.
Since I do a lot of panos I have found that if I take a shot of my hand with on finger then I know that is the beginning of my shots and when I finish I take a shot of my hand with two fingers. That way I know the sequence when I upload my images. I also shoot vertically and use a tripod with a pano set up.

Well hope that helps with some technique - The image is great and I could see it hanging over the head of your bed.

Yes iconic and that you were there is very cool. I have photo of Morro Rock in Morro Bay, CA, a sunset shot and it was just ok until a dragon boat (Brest Cancer Survivors) were paddling across. It made the shot and so bottom line your timing was great.

Nice.

73 Aug 21 Comment Janos,
I like that there are clouds and that the sun is hitting the high peaks. The greens are intense and something I would figure in this kind of environment.

I tend to go with a pano and for this setting and if I was there I might have done one to give more breath to the image. Just my two cents worth.

Very nice image - I could see this printed and on a wall. The red roof makes things opposed and enjoy the foreground - and yes the bird adds to the image.

Stellar image! Reflected clouds clear and did not loose much if any detail, even the little pole on top of the building in in the reflection - Very nice.

89 Aug 21 Reply It was a while ago but I usually try to use the sharpest part of the lens and generally from what I have been told f2.8 is not, so I stop down to f 8 or 9 and if there is foreground I use hyperfocal distance and shoot f16.
Lately for close foreground to infinity I have done 3 -5 shots and different focus points and stacking the images. Works well
