The pano composition looks good. Nice landscape. Thinking you could have placed the tree a bit more to the left and removed the empty space behind it. You could have used a narrower aperture as you had a high shutter speed. Thanks for sharing.

I love to see details in the images. So we have allowed images to be uploaded to a maximum of 1024 pixels on the longest side. Landscape images need to be viewed in large size with sufficient details in it.

In a landscape image, I would prefer to use a narrow aperture. f2.8 is wide and gives a relatively shallow depth of field. Of course, your camera has a small sensor and hence even f2.8 gives more depth of field, however, I would prefer to use the narrowest aperture available in the compact camera or of the lens in case of interchangeable lens cameras.

Composition wise I am ok. However, moving very slightly to the left would have ensured that the white cloud is completely visible as the tree slightly obstructs it. The lone tree at the point serves as a suitable anchor, however, slightly moving to the left would look even better. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
