Ragged edges

  I’m still enjoying the vista of New Zealand’s southern island, so much so that I am taking multi-overlapping photos of nearly everything. Since I’m doing this handheld I end up with ragged edges from the autostitch process. Normally I trim those edges off but for this series there is a certain charm in having a black matte absorb the jagged edges. It complients the harsh setting of the Mount John Observatory, high above Lake Tepako
