Good Mornin' Douglas!

I'm a little late in  commenting... We've been traveling in both the 
US and Canada for the last 2 to 3 weeks, and had little time to spend 
at a keyboard.

That said, I did look at this shot when it was first put up, and have 
just done so again.

The biggest problem of w/a lenses, for me, is that while they "get it 
all in", the image details become so small as to make the shot close 
to useless.  By cropping the way you've done, you've eliminated tons 
of irrelevant area and made a panorama shot which works exceptionally 
well!  the composition leads the eye well, and the photo gives the 
viewer a real 'taste' of the area.

Nicely done!

BTW: which free BW conversion plug-in did you use?  It seems to work 
quite well!

Cheers!
