Haleakala Panorama

Another panorama on top of the volcano. The last one I swear. Panoramas seem to always be horizontal so I decided to try a vertical along the valley bottom. When taking pano photos it's important to shot in fully manual mode so that the exposures will be the same across all photos. With this shot I had to balance between the bright sky and background with the dark foreground. That is another reason why shooting in RAW is great because I can play around with the exposures once I get back home instead of trying to get it right on the spot.
