Photographer’s Note
Hello,
This is an panoramic image of an Brocken Spectre seen in the polish mountains. Panoramic is made by 14 vertical images connected in PTGui software.
Polish mountaineers believe that if you see this phenomenon you will die in mountains... to stay alive you have to see this Spectre 3 times. :) Wish me another 2 soon :)

Well it's not a bad thing to die in the mountains especially if u're in love with them, right?
Who's shadow is that? I read the explanation, who would've thought of it, it's quite a phenomenon beautifully represented in your photo. I'm really not into panoramic views, but this one has "it", it has a story within, not to mention the colors, the sharpness the POV ... all those elements are totally perfect.
Best regards

Very interesting phenomenon. You have captured it very well. Excellent use of PP to make it panoramic.
