Delicate Arch Panorama

Some of you wanted to see more on the left of the arch in my previous shot of the arch where I framed the arch on the extreme left of the frame. I had a set of shots just to the left, so I essentially stitched those to make a panorama. This is made from 6 shots, 3 for the left side and 3 for the right, separately merged into HDR in photoshop, then exposure corrected and stitched in Hugin. Final editing was done in photoshop on the stitched photo. Would like to hear what you think about this in comparison with the previous shot. Because of its panoramic aspect ratio, it looks much better in lightbox -- press L. One thing I would say is that at this time of the day, it is next to impossible to get a cleaner panoramic shot here. This was in January, and there were quite a few people. I can't imagine how many more there would be in summer.
