Gigapan #6: Abandonded Slate Quarry - West Pawlet, VT

I decided it was a good idea to head out on an incredibly hot and humid day to take a few photos... I'm including both a GigaPan and a hand-held Photosynth of the same location. This is one of my favorite quarries because it provides an excellent view of the east dipping orientation associated with many of the formations in the Taconic Mountains. The 'drowned' quarry also exhibits a characteristic blue most often associated with alpine lakes because of the high clay content.
