This is a very powerful image! Nice work with that pano, it can be pain sometimes to stich them together..

Yep, I spent so much time trying to correct a color cast in one of the originals that I forgot to adjust levels! The lighting was also less than the ideal with the sun in front of me, but I'll go back again if I have a chance closer to dawn or sunset. Thanks for the comments and suggestions--new version with levels adjustment will be posted tonight.

Levels and curves are adjustments that can be made in PhotoShop and other graphic editing programs.

Very nice photo...and the pano seams are are almost invisible. Perhaps putting it in B & W or sepia might give more depth? Also, I don't know what others have meant by using "levels" and giving it "curves."

When the topic of this challenge was announced, I immediately thought that anyone living in the San Francisco bay area was golden. This pano is a terrific image.

The lighting is very tough to work with, but I would like to see a little more "punch." As Gayle has commented, levels may help, or I would suggest using curves.

Fantastic pano, beautiful scenery! (*) Try auto levels on this to give it more depth.
