Description This is a panorama of three HDR shots I took during a trip to Death Valley National Park . This shot was taken just off the side of the road several miles south of Badwater Basin . When I go on trips I try to avoid returning the way I came, which is how I got this shot. To get to Death Valley from Las Vegas involves traveling into and through Pahrump to access Bell Vista which leads you to Death Valley. After a day of hiking, I chose to leave by traveling south on Badwater Road which turns into CA-178 which leads to Pahrump. Along the way the clouds and the setting sun combined to create what you see here. Unable to resist, I pulled over, unpacked my tripod, and shot until the best light was completely gone.Click here to go to my blog and see this image before and after post-processing.

Since this was a panorama of multiple HDRs there is really no "original" for me to use. Sorry for the confusion. I may look into doing the panorama with the neutral images (+/- 0 stop) and using that for the "before/original" in the future, but I don't have one for this particular image.

Rowan thanks for the high praise and compliments. I 100% agree with you on the clouds. They are the only reason I stopped.
