Rabaul Altered Landscape

 

 

 

Altered landscape is somewhat of an understatement for this scene stitched around the corner from my previous stitch.

How are the lava and ash lines leading into the bay and into the hot springs on the right hand foreground!

I felt like I had definitely left planet earth through a time warp and landed on another moon somewhere for sure. There was a new shot arpund every corner….hope you like it!

    Great shot if you ask me, I personally would like to see a tad more sky but either way I’m liking this shot nice composition.

    • Thanks Darren Happy New year to you 2 mare!

      In actual fact this shot is really all about the lava lines and when zoomed in they are awesome!

      At 1200 pixels the lines are not prominent enough.

      Cheers,

      Mark

  6. Winner. The best pano from our VVAP volcano expedition for sure! Like I said, really good balanced composition in this one and great lines. Print this one big and give it to Christian, he can shed a tear or two over not going 🙂
