I'm surprised how easy the images are to process from the 6D and even with that ease end up with colour. I used to do all sorts of acrobatics with my 7D and 350D but to get colour like this from the 6D takes barely any work, just some simple levels and sometimes a touch of saturation. It reminds me of film days when my Provia 400 shots required very little work to have nice colour. I can see why others are getting such colourful shots from the 6D.

Its quite hard to predict though exactly where centre of the arch will be in a pano. I've had that happen as well.

Greg.
Yeah, I did move around a bit at the time but the tree on the left was much closer and moving was leaving the SMC in a less desirable location and easily blocked by the tree. In the end where I happened to be at first is where I stayed

I wasn't planning on taking any more shots at that time, was standing there talking to a fellow astronomer who was still imaging with his telescope when I looked up and commented that I should take another shot. So it was a bit of split second decision too.
