In that shot, I was just trying to get an angle where I could show more of the stream, so that's why it's tilted. ;)

Re: Added some pics
Thanks for adding your pictures!!! Regarding the "tilted" shot, it would seem from the votes it's getting that others are a little confused by the angle.
As an artist, I didn't mind the unconventional view, but it may not be getting your message through clearly. I just posted a vertical panorama of the falls I took a few years ago. Take a look at it and see if the "pan" format doesn't do a better job of showing the stream below the falls.
Your panorama shot looks great. That method never crossed my mind when I was there last summer. I take shots from alot of different angles on different subjects...just my style, but I understand some may be confused by it.
Thanks, Ed. The history section was suppposed to be smaller, but I kept finding all these interesting (at least to me) tidbits as I read Buchholtz book. Glad you like the page.
Thanks much Chris. The page was a labor of love of sorts, having this Park as a backyard is pretty darn good. Mountain Jim did a fantatsic job on those panoramas.
Awesome job, guys! I don't know how I managed to miss voting on this page, but since I was last here, many changes have happened and this page is AWESOME! NICELY DONE!
Thank you very much. I'm honored that you like it ... but you need to know that Nelson is responsible for most of it so he's the one who really deserves the kudos.
Peace, Jim
Thanks Aaron, It was slow work putting it together - the "under construction" sign was up for months, but it finally got there. Mountain Jim's panoramas are wonderful additions, and looking at them are great ways to dream of future outings. Take care, Nelson
Took me a couple days just to check it out, can't imagine how long it took to put together.
Thanks for the Herculean effort Nelson and Jim, it's more of a journey than a page.

Added some picsHope you don't mind, but I added some pictures from my experience with RMNP.

Re: Added some picsSure, man, submit all you want. That's what SP is about. RMNP is great, glad to hear you've enjoyed it there!
But, I have to ask, in this shot, were you falling into the stream when you took it? It looks kind of tilted to me! :-}
In any case, thanks for the submissions. The page is getting close to where I'll take down the Under Construction sign soon.
