Impending sunset and an approaching storm front converge to give the Namib Desert an eerie glow.

2-shot shifted, tilted panorama taken with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II and TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II.

Good looking image, but why is one shadow longer then the other?

Distance, and the fact that one of the bushes was longer than the other, I guess...

Also, it's an ultra-ultra-wide-angle shot (equivalent horizontal width to a shot at 14mm on full frame) so the shadow near the edge of the image will look stretched.

Mostly just colour correction, and the job of stitching the images together.
