moods of the outback Photo

Photographer’s Note

I took this shot somewhere in the Outback. I think that's the Olga mountain range on the left. My camera at the time had a panorama feature which didn't actually encompass more space, it just cut off the top and the bottom.

I love this picture, but I feel like some of the quality was lost in the scan. (Also, I had to PS out the date stamp on the bottom right corner. Additionally, I removed a couple scratches, but otherwise did not touch the photo.) Any workshopping would be appreciated.

I found this panoramic interesting.
Diagonal in the clouds, nice light in the plants in the foreground.
I just would avoid the direct sun.

Yes its the Olga's. Otherwise known as Kata Tjuta, the Olgas are set within the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, about 30km west of Uluru (Ayers Rock), right in the centre of the Australian continent.
Its a different perspective to the one I've usually seen, quite interesting. I like it the way it is. Some might say the sun burns out the right hand side, yet it draws your gaze across the image. No, leave it this way, its good.
