Description Image

During our trip =Alex37 and I speculated that we would inevitably end up with two shots similar if not the same and ones we would both submit. So here's my rendition of our trip to the Quairang.

Unfortunately neither of us took our tripods with us as we didn't think the light would be decent enough. Low and behold the light came through, so I made myself as sturdy as possible and set my settings to make the best of the scene and clicked away with hope that I would get a sharp photo. This image is a stitch of two horizontal shots and merged in PTgui and PS

Wow, stunning. This wins!

This looks like something straight out of a Peter Jackson movie. *goes straight to Flickr to find Creative Commons pics of Quirang to use for Matte paintings*
