Crater Lake - Maroon Bells near Aspen, CO

5 years 10 months ago - 5 years 10 months ago #583957 by bbillstr
Hey guys!

First time posting here - just wanted to share a hand held panorama I grabbed while hiking near Maroon Bells Lake outside of Aspen, CO.  This was shot near Crater Lake after a short hike.  I took around 10 vertical images and merged them together using Lightroom CC's merge function.

This is my first time trying this technique while doing a handheld pano.

Hope you all like it!

Nice composition but you way overcooked the blues. If that is your preference that's fine but it's too strong for my taste. If you used a polarizer at this altitude that would explain the blue. The effect of a polarizer is super strong at high altitude. Nice image, just rethink the processing. I've been there, done that and wished I had a do over.

Why so serious?

Lighter blue will make it better IMO.
