That's terrific, Tuco. The movement in the sky adds quite a bit to the picture.

To move from the mountains to something much smaller for a moment. We had to put one of our Cairn terriers to sleep last year. This is my favorite picture of her. Taken with a Canon FTb and a DIY tilt/shift rig using an old Bronica 75mm lens on Kodak Gold 200 35mm film.

Hi Jonathan, I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. I'm glad that you have this great picture.
We lost Murphy, a Leonberger, about a year ago.

Peter,
Great shot. Majestic! Thanks for your condolences and I offer them in return. Anyone who's lost a pet knows how hard it is.

Majestic shot. Nice. A good one to remember by.
It must be the season for deceased pets. My cat recently disappeared. I don't know what happen to it. I have to admit though, I don't miss being bossed around anymore.

Rarely seen mirrors on WW2 era fighters -- always thought the vibration from the powerplant made them useless...
A couple of stiched shots for you:
First through my microscope (91 shots at 40x mag)
Fly Wing
This one is shot in infra red, handheld with an older unmodified DSLR (Pentax K100d, 50mm f1.7, 760nm filter).
Thames IR panorama
Both were stitched using Microsoft ICE.
As with all great shots, it's possible to find multiple cropped versions that work well. If I had a shot like the 6x6 you're suggesting I'd want to crop some of the foregrounds out the bottom 1/4 or so.
With Alberto's original the clouds are a very important element, if I had to crop it, to make it fit a 6x7 format I'd take of a lot less at the top (no more than 1/3 of the sky leaving the clouds), and loose some of the foreground. The diagonal track leads the eye into the composition so care must be taken not to trim too much.
