Not many of you heard about our, Moldovan canyon. Yes, we have some of them, mainly small, but this one is really big. The river Raut has caved the limestone for centuries making this majestic beauty of nature. Many tribes representing many civilizations found home on this territory leaving it with ancient foundings, turkish baths and other moments full of history. This link will help to get into the atmosphere of the place.

Processed with PerfectRAW and Hugin and PS.

I’ve been watching for the right moment of capturing this cityscape for a pretty long time. Everytime was saying to myself that will be the perfect day and light and I’ll make this panorama. So here it came.

I took two shots with my Pentax K100D, 18 mm, f. 8.0 and stiched them in hugin, the best sticher so far, though I’m not a pro at mastering it.

The images were converted to 16 bit TIFF using PerfectRAW as usual. Didn’t apply noise reduction because the images were quite OK concerning noise. 

In Photoshop thought for a og time how to process it and in the end made it cross processing. Acutallu I was looking for that “Hancock” movie look, high contrast, mixed yellow with green and so on, but couldn’t find any tutorial about that on the net. So decided to do it on my own. 

It will not be put on sites for prints, just an exercise for my own pleasure…
