Went out early this morning for the first real shoot with the D300 - still got a lot of learning to do. C&C welcome.

Three very nice locations. I like these captures but, even though you said you were up early it looks like you may have been beaten by the sun by a little bit. I'd love to see some more of the same location at sunrise or sunset to really get some nice lighting.

I had a quick tweak of one capture to try and bring back the sky, it seemed a touch blown out to me. I bumped up the vibrance a little too to bring out some extra colour and yes, I may have got a little carried away with it? :wink:

Nice work! You seem to be coming to grips with the camera and the technical side of creating panos. Just 1 little tip...it is pretty essential when composing landscapes to have a foreground, middle-ground and background. Beware the empty or featureless foreground...it weakens the composition. Look for flowers, rocks, people, rusting car bodies, wildlife....anything at all, to add perspective and interest to your image. If you get the foreground right then the background will look after itself.

Cheers!
