Emerald Pool Pano -WC773

Four shot horizontal pano of Emerald Pool, Black Sand Basin, Yellowstone N. P. taken in June, 2016.  I had quite a bit of overlap in each image because I wanted to make sure the horizon would be straight since I wasn't using a tripod.

Wow! Nice colors Paula. I really like the steam coming off the pool. The deep blues and greens fading into the oranges are really nice.

Very nice, Paula. The concentric circles work well, and very nicely exposed.

Nicely done, Paula!  The colors really make this any eye-catcher.  A very real appearance and nice detail, even in the background trees.

Perfect exposure and the colours just "pop". 
The snow and  rising steam are great.
I'd like to see a bit ore on top, ideally, to balance the image.
Extremely nice work!

A lovely look at this very colorful pool, Paula.  Going pano, lets the entire pool fill the frame without a lot of extra at the top or bottom.  That really lets the colors in the pool shine.  I thoroughly enjoy the dancing wisps of mist rising off the pool.

Very nice color and panorama affect in this image.  The detail is superb.
