Green Meadow Vista

Digital Illusions

On an old logging road [known as the 100 line] in Southern Oregon sits this beautiful meadow. it is about a mile wide and about a mile accros. Most of the summer this meadow is as brown as the dirt in the bottom corner, however this spring day it was just begging to be photographed.

This image is composed of 6 photos stitched and touched up (curves adjustment) with CS3

Great shot... The sky looks a little unreal though, I have the same problem with panos involving the sky, just cant seem to make it looks realistic enough. There must me some software people can use to put a bit more realism into fixing the sky.... is there?......

I can see it now

I really like it. It looks so peacful and the color is good. As for the sky it doesn't bother me. I must be missing something, but I don't see anything wrong with it. There looks like alot of trails left by planes. Is that what I'm seeing?

Again....I really like it

You are correct they are vapor trails from airplanes. I live in an area that is directly beneath the west coast flight path. I can sit and watch airliners all day that are flying up and down the west coast. Pretty neat sometimes, especially when it’s a heavy traffic day and they are creating these vapor trails.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
