Paint it Black [explored]

A 3 frame panorama shot of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. The large cliff feature on the right is called the "Painted Wall" for obvious reasons. It is truly spectacular to see in person, and as I mentioned in the previous shot, somewhat difficult to photograph! Second shot from Black Canyon from my recent Colorado trip. This is the first true multi-frame pano that I've ever posted here, though I've tried some others. This one is also a multiple exposure merge using the Pentax K-3 ii pixel shift. So, there are a total of 36 separate images merged here. The original TIF file after the merge is 415MB. By far the largest image I've ever created. Wish I'd had the fancy motorized pano head that we saw one photog using at Mesa Arch a couple of days later!

 

Very cool to see this hit explore (peaked at 24) on August 10. Thanks to all for viewing, faving and commenting!
