Beautiful Sweeping view Morkel, and I really like the colour in the sky. I do see what I think is noise in the sky/clouds (espec Lower RHS), which suprises me..

Gorgeous sky and blue hills! I wonder if a little more structure / clarity / LCE would be good.

I love the composition with the hills on the left sweeping down to the plain. Beautiful sky. The lions have got it all!!

Hi Morkel - beautiful pastel colors and I like the overall feel to this. I also like the image design with the hills in the llc. Looks pretty good for shot through glass.

TFS,
Rachel

Good job on the stitching, I really enjoyed the panorama, lovely colours.

[Morkel Erasmus]

Thanks folks.
Rachel I had the window open though :bg3: the comment was to serve to say that I wasn't on a tripod

Love the layers in this image Morkel they ad depth and the sky is full of wonderful pastel colors I would not change a thing

[Jerry van Dijk]

Spectacular sky Morkel. Despite the lovely mountains, I do feel that the image is a bit 'empty', i.e. there's very little in the FG to anchor the image. Maybe a lion in the FG would have solved that problem!
I wonder whether you should add a little more contrast to the image.

Love this one as presented Morkel...killer sky colour!!!
