This one is a full 360 x 180-degree panorama, Tim, made up of eight shots, six "portrait" fisheye shots at 60 degrees to each other, and one straight up (zenith), another straight down (nadir). It is only the new PTgui that emboldens me to take this kind of stitching on. It really went very well--slight trouble with the nadir shot (you can see it if you look VERY carefully).

another super composition Roger. Also great color! Is this a single shot or joined via software?

I can see why panoramas are addictive. There sure are some dandies. I am so glad that you are included in the website with others from around the world!

Dear Mary, I am SO glad you tried the panoramic viewer! Not one in a hundred does... What a difference it makes. Now you can see how I got hooked on panoramas, I think. You might enjoy the Worldwide Panorama site. Google for WWP + panorama. It has some of the best from all around the world (and one of mine!). I can spend hours browsing there (when I have the time).

One has to love the panoramic viewer. This takes on a whole new gloriousness with it. The colours are grand. Those trees are intersting. They seem to embrace the beauty under them. That path leads us right through to the back and deyond. Superb.

Hi Roger,
nice work, I especially like the trees which look a bit weird.

Hi, Ray...
The url is http://geoimages.berkeley.edu/wwp906/html/RogerWilliams.html
The site is still a little buggy. The image auto rotates so fast you cannot see anything! Just click and hold down the mouse button somewhere inside the image to stop that nonsense. Then, with the button still down, you can use it to scan up and down and pan L & R. To zoom in and out, hit CTRL or SHFT. Do let me know what you think!

Ray, I learned only after I suggested this that it hasn't been opened to the public yet. I'll let you know as soon as it goes public. You'll need the Apple QuickTime plug-in, which I believe comes pre-installed with Microsoft Internet Explorer. However, do upgrade if you get a message telling you to do so as there is a horrendous safety "hole" in the former version. The new one is quite safe, although a bit big... a couple of megabytes, I believe. But well worth the time it will take you to download.

Thanks, Joel. The full rez version is actually very highly compressed and if you look at all closely the JPEG artifacts are rather annoying. The original is simply gorgeous! This is actually a cropped version (the original, as with all true 360 x 180 panoramas, has a 2:1 aspect ratio). So this already looks pretty long and thin to me...

Roger,
Very nice! you're so good at these! The full rez version of this is wonderful. Fantastic balance with the composition. Did you try a version with a crop to trim 1/5th out of the top? ..or was that too much of a thin aspect?
cheers,
-joel

Thank you kindly, Ray. I am quite pleased with this. In the original from it is one of my few TRULY 360 x 180 panoramas, i.e., with the hole in the ground (left by avoiding the tripod image) filled in properly. This is the most difficult bit of panorama making, and there is no way to automate it. My "Oyama Level Crossing" has been accepted for the Worldwide Panorama site biannual event which this time is about "transport." If you are interested, I will send you the URL and you can look at it as it was meant to be seen.

Aha here you are with panorama views by digital camera. The 10mm is certainly very suited for this, certainly in your hands. Quite interesting view and width.
