Thanks, Raymond! It makes me really happy when I can get an image I love from Ohio, more meaningful to me than going to any spectacular national park somewhere else. This is at a state park 20 minutes from my home that I frequent a lot for exercise and mental health. I loved the glow from the backlight and the delicacy of the dogwoods and small leaves.

Thanks Raymond,
there are plenty of nice bridges to choose from in Budapest. They're also very nice for stereo photography or just plain wideangle subjects.

Agree, quite an image. I did a family trip shot on a beach under windy conditions, didn't like the blowing sand but could cover the camera. Nothing like this though.
It helps a lot to know what experienced people is doing to achieve fantastic results.
I agree that the gradient is ugly in the pano. But it is not from the filters in the field. I introduce it in post-processing, since I dislike the plain sky in the central exposure. The result in the pano is displeasing, I agree with you.
@fjablo@ I like a lot your trick about the grid of boxes. I put it in praxis yesterday and it was a very interesting and practical approach in the field. I have a lot of delay post processing, since I am just a hobbyist. The only difficulty of this technique will be to remember with photos I intended for pano I am putting a finger to avoid any temptation of keeping it as a normal frame
About the XPAN lenses set of equivalent focal lengths 16, 25, 50. Trying to mimic the xpan is a very interesting combo. I have such lenses (VM 15 LTM kind of weak but small), so I can make an outing and try.
