Sometimes a landscape is just so vast that even a wide-angle lens can't do it justice: you need to make a panorama. This one is stitched together in Photoshop from three separate 6 MP images. The shots were taken handheld from the roof of a Landcruiser, using the "overlap by a third" rule I picked up somewhere (I'd have preferred a tripod to make this easier). Knowing that differing exposures can make blending the images tricky, I returned to the same target area on the left and locked focus and exposure before re-composing for the middle and right-hand images.
