Mark M. referres to this location as "Southwest Vista", so I just continue the trend.
Early morning, 5 vertical frames.

Thoughts and comments are welcome.

Sasha.

I like your treatment of the colors. I really works for me and the land complements the colors in the sky. I like it.

Very nice and I just love the natural colors that you captured here. Just proves that natures light is all that one needs in my opinion and what true photography is about. Capture what you see and the image will take care of itself.

The colors are believable, especially as you can see the light setting on the distant formations. Very well done!

Hey Sasha,

Wow! This may be my favorite shot ever for you. I voted for it for thread of the week. Awesome detail, and you worked the light perfectly! Way to go.

Really nice image, well composed with nice soft colours. I especially like the yellow bush in the bottom right which provides an added interest and stops your eye wandering out of the frame.

Dave, thank you! I left colors mostly where they were. All color/contrast processing was done in ACR.

Michael, thank you. This location is like a magnet for me, the shapes and colors are so perfect and intriguing, so I was trying to show it the best I can.

Nigel, thank you for the comment, glad you like the colors.
It was shot in RAW in auto WB, most processing done in ACR.
IMO, it provides finer color tuning than PS, but not much processing was needed for this particular picture.

Beautiful shot or shots? Great idea of stretching wide by shooting a panorama. Great PP too. Dave
