Dead Horse Pano

This photo was rather disappointing because I ruined the last frame. After going to this setting I realized this location would make a better sunrise shot than sunset. But oh well there I was so I took it.

The legend of Dead Horse Point talks about the days when wild mustangs roamed the mesa. Cowboys would round them up herding them across the narrow neck of land and onto the point. This is where they choose the best mustangs and left the rest to die of thirst just above the Colorado River.

It's such a mean story, I really hope it isn't true. This place is amazingly beautiful, it emphasizes how small man really is.

I hope to return soon at daybreak and take this pano right! IN the meantime tell me what I could have done to not screw it up...please!
