The Tagus River in Toledo[edit]

Reason: I took this panorama almost a year ago and considered nominating it but was never happy with the original processing as it looked a bit dull. After re-processing it using tone mapping techniques, I was able to hold onto the vibrancy and dynamic range of the scene while keeping it looking (I think) quite natural. Anyway, its a very picturesque view of the Tagus River and the edge of the city walls of Toledo.
Proposed caption: The Tagus River, the longest river on the Iberian Peninsula at 1,038 kilometers, begins its journey in the Albarracín mountains in Spain, and follows very constricted course for much of its length before reaching the Atlantic Ocean in Portugal. Seen here, it passes through the World Heritage listed city of Toledo.

Support My first thought was that it was a gorgeous image; my next thought was that it would be even better if more folks in Toledo had cable TV. Matt Deres 04:21, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
