Don, thanks. I have since changed the tilt in in the image. I am almost 100% certain it was shot level as there was zero wind when I was flying. But the curve in the line makes it look tilted
Unless there is some reason not to I leave the bracketing on. One less thing to worry about. I most likely could have done the post without merging the 5 images and gotten a similar result but they were they so why not |

Thanks so much for the time you spent on this! I struggled greatly with how to crop this image and I like some things about your crop. Although now it feels a little tight on the left side. I am going to go back to LR and play with this a little more.
I have subsequently noticed that the image feels a little tilted down on the left. I think the drone shot it flat but it just looks a little off.
Trona Pinnacles...I shot there a few days earlier on my photo-road trip intending to use the drone. I had a great sky, but, alas, too windy to fly the drone. I did get some nice "ground" images. I do have an image from 2021 of the pinnacles shot from my drone, but it was a kind of a flat sky |

I like the processing and general "feel" of this image.
Since it sounds like you can go back there I would be interested in a lower altitude shot of just the car ferry, maybe a minute earlier before it gets so close to the dock. What I find is a real curse of drone photography is you are up high and shooting with a wide angle lens. Frequently too much "stuff" winds up in the images. In this image while I see the ferry as a quite interesting subject (especially if it were in good light) I don't think the dock is especially helpful. |

I'm with Julie, I would make it more about the clouds. And by cropping up from the bottom a little you could get rid of the phone poles.
And if you cropped in from the left you could loose that bright spot in the lower left.
The one large bright spot on the mountains is pretty centered. That could be moved off center by cropping.
The mountains don't seem especially sharp although that could be the small files we are required to work with. |

I'm really envious of all the castle shooting opportunities where you live (or travel)!
I like the processing.
It just feels like there is a lot of "stuff" in this image, especially the tree in the upper left. If you can go back, maybe try lower altitude and position the drone more to the left, such that the shadow is 90 degrees to the image. In the original (uncropped) image I don't see that there would be any distracting objects in the background if the drone was moved left and aimed to the right of this image |

In my monitor the images looks a little bright or hot.
It would have been interesting to see the result if you had moved right some and shot with all the rows aimed right at the drone camera, and put the tractor near the back (upper) part of such an image |

Very interesting image. I too would vote for a black n white.
Possibly crop in from the top to move the left-right structure further away from the center? |

Another nice one. If I wanted to get crazy I might have burned down the small white object in the middle right, lowered the saturation of the red sculpture on the left, and deleted the small pointed shadow lower left.
Just curious...why the pano in the first place? Wasn't the original image wide enough? Or were you planning to make a large print? |
