the valley region which also shows you the river leading you
again into the mountains. The original photo does not show the road on left? I would probably crop a little more in the lower road area foreground.   Posted: 05/05/2022 10:53:57
In fact, it is a stitching of three digital files thru PS21 and then cropped to finalise the above view. I am attaching the original panorama file for your convient. It was a jeep safari, when we first observed the mountain view, we stopped the jeep and took plenty of shots to capture the environment.
Thank you for your observation and comments.   Posted: 05/05/2022 23:27:42
