  2. I caught a very lucky gap in the clouds that was just long enough to capture the 300 images necessary to capture this GigaPan. I still want to get back and reshoot a couple of the other GigaPans at Capitol Reef, but I wouldn't feel bad if I didn't reshoot this one.

  3. If you're travelling through the Capitol Reef area in Utah, the Luna Mesa is a required stop. Tell 'em, Ron sent you.

  4. Jurassic Summerville Formation

  5. Another quickie because of the clouds. Grrrr...

  6. I originally set up for a 750 image GigaPan, but about 200 images into it a cloud rolled in from the west and it was clear that if I continued I'd end up with a lot of frustration and no other GigaPans for the day. Consequently, I dialed back the zoom and shot a much smaller GigaPan when a gap in the clouds allowed it...

  7. A little more detail of Factory Butte itself.

  8. Just a little 360 panorama of the Factory Butte area. It's undoubtedly out of view, but Disney was just setting up down the road to shoot scenes from next summer's film "John Carter of Mars". I have a new appreciation of what the phrase "spared no expense" really means in the movie making business.

  9. That's right, you heard me: cliffs of shale. Alright, I'll admit that there are sandstone caprocks, but still, CLIFFS OF SHALE! I can't imagine anyone has tried free climbing this cliff. They don't call it Luna Mesa for nothing.

  10. The rainbow in the sprinkler caught my eye as I was driving by and I couldn't resist stopping for an early morning GigaPan.
