To kick off the new theme of panoramic images. I reworked this stitched together image I took a while ago in New Mexico. You can get some fantastic light in NM and also dark skies at the same time. A layer of topaz simplify 4, buz sim III, and a layer of fractalius glow, multiply blend mode, reduced to 22%.

I really like the Simplified approach you took to this. The sky is very interesting without being a distraction. Nicely done.

Good comp. with pleasing complimentary colors. The dark sky accentuates the vivid colors.

The dark sky streak through the middle helps add depth. Must be a amazing place to see. Nicely done.

Nice image, I like the contrast between the dark trees and light cliffs. The watercolor effect works well. Thanks for sharing

I love New Mexico - truly the land of enchantment... I'm really liking the two framing elements, with the trees on the left and the cliffs on the right. They make a perfect frame for the moody sky. Nice painterly effect too.

Nicely composed. I like the glow of the rocks against the dark sky.
