Rising through the ashes

Here’s another shot from my recent trip to Wanagarren—a striking field of grass trees, freshly scorched by a bushfire. This image was captured during a hectic 2-hour window, racing against the clock between nightfall and moonrise (just 1 hour and 45 minutes!).

 

I managed to pull off a 210° pano and this vertical 1x4 panorama in that short time, keeping exposures to 20 seconds to maximize detail before the moon’s light dominated the sky. While this pano turned out a bit taller than I’d like (thanks to some hasty planning), it still captures the beauty of this landscape.
