Thanks for looking & for the Flickr tutorials. For some reason I can't get
into full screen mode (the two balls just go round & round for ever!) so I
haven't seen the auto pan mode yet.

Esc should work in any browser / OS.
I'm a Flickr user and I agree that the new image viewing UI "has
issues" (sucks). You're supposed to click the non-obvious X in the
upper-right corner of the viewer when you want to leave "view single
image" mode. If instead you happen to click on the image itself it
goes into auto-fullscreen-slideshow mode. This navigation breaks all
the user expectations and is confusing.
Sigh.

Very nice!
Two comments about the presentation of the panos in fliker:
First, I somehow clicked something that threw the image (buffalos) into
full screen, and then started into a Ken Burns style animation of the
image, sweeping back and forth across the pano. Unexpected (!) but
effective in giving a good feel for the scope and breadth of the
landscape, particularly with the river shot. And clicking near the
bottom uncovered buttons to Stop the action or to move forward/backword
to another image. OK, all good so far. (Though I would rather the
Ken-Burns sweep was slower.)
Second, I could not get out of that full-screen mode. I could find no
button to return to Home, I couldn't dismiss the Flash (?) player, and I
couldn't even close my browser window. Eventually I did a forced-quit on
the browser (Safari, appropriately enough).

A couple of Panos from last weekend in Kruger. Right click to chose a
larger size & then pan L & R.
Olifants Camp is situated high on a ridge on the E bank of the Olifants
river. From here you can see for miles. There used to be a pay
telescope at the point from which I took these 5 stitched photos but it
was vandalised & removed. This is a favourite spot for tourists,
especially those sporting big white lenses. My humble K110D was the
rose among the thorns. The Pano is roughly 180deg, looking W.

Buffaloes live in matriarchal herds comprising several hundred
individuals. The mature bulls graze alone or in small groups to build
up strength for periodical sex orgies. This herd of about 300 was
basking in the mid-day sun south of Satara camp.
