I just went looking in the archive because I didn't receive the original post either. Dave Rob Studdert Thu, 12 Jan 2006 05:05:31 -0800 Hi Team, I've not been posting many PESOs of late as it's a little embarrassing expecting others to pass comment on your pics when (of late) you rarely comment on other peoples pics. However if you have wondered what else I've been doing apart from bitching and moaning about Pentax cameras and Mac computers here's a pano that I just finally got around to stitching. It's a biggie, mind this link is only 20% of the full 48.5MP image (zoom to 500% if you want an idea of the size of the 1:1 image). A browser probably isn't the best tool to view it. It is composed of eight vertical images which were shot hand held using my *ist D and trusty A24/2.8. I could probably have got away only five pics but the more overlap created in hand held sequences the easier it is in the post processing (but you have to wait like a statue as the buffer slowly empties). The image spans a view of approximately 230° x 80° and as such given the high contrast of the scene the sky is somewhat burnt out in parts. The beauty is that I have plenty of scope now to crop plus I could potentially repair the sky if I had the time or patience. http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio/temp/pano097.1.2sm.jpg (~1MB) Tech: *ist D, ISO200, 1/250s A24/2.8 @ f7.1, hand held. The area is The Gawler Ranges in South Australia and the formation is known as the Organ-Pipes and is composed of exposed volcanic rhyolite. http://www.tep.com.au/nationalparks/np_gawler.htm The sequence was stitched and blended using Hugin and Enblend. Thanks for looking, comments, questions and critiques welcome.
