Sept. 29, 2020 on County Rd. 7 southwest of Ridgeway, CO, I nearly always try to get to this location for either sunrise or sunset anytime I am in the San Juans. This morning I thought I was getting there plenty early only to find at least 20 other photographers already sat up waiting for the sunrise. Thankfully the spot I had wanted to shoot from was unoccupied. This is another one of those problem some locations where the sun light doesn’t illuminate the valley until right towards the end of the Golden Hour. This was the last of 8 different panoramas I shoot this morning.

This original uncropped version of this panorama consists of 140 individual 50.1 mega-pixel images shot with Canon 5DSR at f/13, 1/160th second and ISO 400 using a 200mm lens. I shot this targeting for a 1:4 ratio panorama. I ended up cropping off the right 25% because that area was boring. The cropped image as shown is:

  • 3.34 Giga-pixels
  • 33,360 x 100,080 pixels
  • 111″ x 333″ at 300 ppi
  • Available in 1:3 ratio from 10″ x 30″ to 32″ x 96 ” as Print, Standard Plaque, Alumipress or PlexiPlaq.
  • As a Tri-Panel it is available up to 48″ x 144″ at 300 ppi
  • Wall Murals available 1:3 ratio in sizes up to 9 ft 3 in. x 27 ft. 9 in.at 300 ppi (18 ft 6 in. x 55 ft. 6 in.at 150 ppi) without loss of detail.
  • Wall Murals normally need to be cropped down to fit typical wall. Photo shown below is the above imaged cropped to a 8 ft. x 12 ft. size.
  • Call for pricing over 40″ x 60″
