Just in Time

During a recent long weekend journey Brad McGinley and I joined Susan Humphrey for a visit and tour of the south western portion of the state. This pano of the Big Cimarron Valley shows off the color we were seeing throughout the weekend, though it may be one of the best overall stands of simultaneous turning leaves. Plus, the added bonus of the first clouds of the weekend. Just in time for sunset.

 

When we first arrived at this location we were in the middle of a scoping journey for this evenings sunset and were floored by the color and view. We continued on our way to see if there were other areas as outstanding, but none held a candle to this so we came back a couple hours before sunset.

 

This is a about a 6 shot pano taken with a 50mm lens in portrait perspective. I estimate 6 shots because it is part of 10 shot pano, which I cropped down for online display purposes. No doubt either would print very dramatically.
