I didn’t think Hugin would be able to handle stitching this scene together… It’s 3 images with the rightmost one basically shot directly into the sun. It came together pretty good though, the sky looks like one uniform gradient. I took these 3 photos on my way from San Francisco to King’s Canyon National Park in June, 2008. I thought “lake” looked nice so I took some photos. Given where I was and the time of day there wasn’t really any way to avoid shooting into the sun.
