This is a three-photo panorama stitch of Pettit Lake in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho. There was a forest fire burning back in the mountains a ways - the helicopter crews were loading and landing right behind me as I took these photos. The smoke obliterated the details on the mountains and made them varying shades of blue-grey. In the afternoon sun, it made an interesting photo. I hope you enjoy.

A very nice pan Nathan. The smoke just added to the beauty of the image.

The name ChuPat is derived from my nickname Chuck and my wife of 34 years name Patti. Her photography will appear on Caedes as well from time to time.

Yes, it certainly did make an interesting effect on your photo. Very nicely rendered, though a shame about the fires going on.

It gives your pic the subtle look of " somewhere & somewhen else" ... Beautiful Nathan, as well as the framing. Love the navy " fog" look ! Well done !

If you love something, set it free. It it comes back to you, it is yours. If it does not, it was never meant to be. Wil
