The dramatic sky was wonderful... thankfully we were back at our lodge happily since the heavens opened up shortly afterwards

Dragon how exactly do you do pano shots?
Im assuming you need to move and keep camera at same height?
Everytime I try I get a fish bowl looking scene.

You need to basically rotate on your feet as an axis.  My wife does better than I do.  I seem to drift vertically and end up with a pretty narrow long pano after I crop for the rectangle.
