This panorama consists of 7 upright frames) I initially took enough eposures for an HDR pano, but took the easy way out. Really, the only high contrast was in the waterfall anyway. Sorry about the blowing leaves in the upper left. There was no way around that with 30 sec exposures.
I had wanted to shoot the Park Avenue at Arches National Park but soon realized that it is not well situated for any kind of nice light or sky conditions as it runs north south with one side always blocking the other side from the sunrise and/or sunset.

Here is another photo I recently took of Courthouse Falls in western North Carolina. Courthouse Falls is located about midway between US64 and the Blue Ridge Parkway on NC215. You'll need to take a gravel forest road three miles in from NC215. Its a short easy hike. If you go into the stream, as I did here, always watch your footing as the rocks are very slippery.
Thanks for viewing my photo stream. Comments are always welcome.
