    Default Got Past that Pesky Pine Tree

    Figured out what I needed to do to get past that pesky pine tree. I changed up the angle and started doing a two or three image pano.

    That first one is my favorite, love it. I like the framing on these much better, to me it all flows better. I like that the marsh grass/cat tails whatever they are in the water aren't another straight horizon.

    Wow! Absolutely gorgeous. Such a calm, colorful photo. The second is my favorite because of the reflections and the ethereal wispy sky. You have a great eye. Thank you for sharing Pat. A great way to start my day with that scene in my mind.

    I like the framing way better also Matt. The first one is my favorite of the two.

    Oh come on Ricardo, the smog adds a bit of clouds to the clear LA skies. You have one of the best horizons for sunsets I don't wanna hear all that! LOL. The smog is just like a Grand Theft Auto filter. I wish I had a fairly flat horizon like Florida or the West Coast for sunsets. I gotta fight my way through pine trees and small hills to find something halfway decent.
