The Clay Cliffs are a marvel. I tried to capture their beauty by placing my tripod in the centre of the crown of peaks.
The bright coloured stone caused difficulty in exposing properly compared to the other dark areas. I played it safe and took a 5 bracket for each image, 3 stops apart, and looking at the raw images it can be justified.
I blended the 5 x 360 degree panoramas in stitching software - PTGui Pro - before exporting to Adobe Lightroom with some work also in Photoshop.
I turned the whole image on itself - into a 'tiny planet' - using PTGui Pro, I then inverted this placing that at the centre.
