surrealistic and very nice. unusual colors. How did you get these colors?
Thank you Peter, Guy and Jack.

Peter, the colors occur naturally, I increased saturation and contrast about 10% in C1 but nothing in the way of hue manipulation.

From my blog entry:

"The low angle of the late Autumn sun mutes colors in the canyon to shades of red, orange, purple and blue. *The deeper the shadow the cooler the light reflecting off the red sandstone appears to the camera."

I like the B&W version better jack, loving the Fall photos too! a pano from the weekend I went down south. 3 image stitch H4D-40 and 35-90mm

A wonderful image indeed! I'm curious to know how you handled the stitching with the moving surf. It seems there is a bit of seam visible, in the moving surf just a bit above the right most corner of the rock on the beach, or is it just my imagination? Anyway, beautiful capture for sure.

Cheers, -Peter

Nice terrific shots all of you!
I feel no one can get bad results with MFD, because you are talented and knowledgable already before getting any MFD ;)

Nope -- we all sucked until we got into MF. :D

Seriously, MF does force you to shoot more carefully and when you shoot more carefully, you get better results. Shooting with a view or tech camera even more so. Many of us however went to MF back in the film days, so the MF digital transition was a lot easier -- heck, it was desired!

I went to MF film this year after i started with Digital MF last year, so i am going opposite direction, and in fact i was learning with Canon DSLRs, so it was not a big problem to use MF good enough as i use 35mm digital.
 
thanks everyone, Peter it stitched pretty good, I tried to take each photo as quick as possible, there are a couple of small spots that need a bit of cloning which still needs to be done :) Jack you sure are right about being more careful with the MFD, Shooting with the 5d mkII before you could just put it on F/16 and shoot away pretty much, I do like how there needs to be more input though and using the viewfinder again has helped me see new things.
