Even better than your usual outstanding fare, Jim. Really nice. And, as others said, Thanks! for the background information.

The second one is, in my mind, just beautiful.

I recall a number of shots with the #2 view. One of my favorites.

Jim, your familiarity with your subjects and your fine PP work have once again resulted in a beautiful and compelling series of images. Your use of foreground for depth is quite nice, especially in #4. I'd love to hear more about your techniques used in #3, as I am a neophyte in the focus-stacking and column-pano types of PP. Well, YouTube here I come! Fine work, sir!

I've shot three of these four scenes repeatedly over the years, the only 'differences' being time of day and weather conditions. Shown in the order they were captured.

#1 - Just up the switchbacks, barely into the Park (Arches N.P.). A four image quasi focus stack/horizontally shot combination of ascending (from looking downward to looking upward) captures processed into a vertical 'panorama'. 24mm lens setting.
#2 - A straight, single image 'scape shot with a 20mm lens.
#3 - The most complex of the lot; 14 separate exposures, two rows of 7 images each. One row with focus placed on the near ground, the other row with focus placed on distant ground. The resulting separate captures then focus stacked and merged into a panorama as planned. 24mm lens setting.
#4 - A simple two image focus stack. 35mm lens setting.

Perfection, all of them!

Broadly speaking, thanks (all) for taking a look and for the comments you've left.

More specifically --Tommy (and any others who might find it useful or even marginally interesting)-- I had thought to work up something of a 'tutorial' in terms of the pano/stack workflow I used in making image #3. To the point that I produced screen shots that illustrate the process, and may well post it when its complete. Stay tuned.....

How can I choose a favorite? They are all great. But especially the last one.

Very nice set. I really like the first shot. The perspective and the detail make it pop.

I doubt that I’ll ever get to this level in the craft, all the more reason that I think these are gorgeous images. Thanks for sharing.
