Thanks again Roger. I will check it out. I'm a Windows type of gal so that should work well for me.  )

Susie, simple panos with two or three pics are a GOOD place to start. You can try PTgui free. Visit www.ptgui.com. The Dutchman (Joost) who made this is very helpful and always answers his E-mail very quickly. See what it does with your photos. I think you will be pleased. The forum isn't really up and going yet, just me trying to generate interest. [g] Oh yes, if you are a MAC user I will have to recommend something else. PTgui is Windows only.

Thanks Roger. I'm having problems with just making a simple pano with 2 or 3 pics. They don't seem to stitch together very well. Is this program called PTgui? I will check out the forum.

You REALLY want to know, Susie? Best way is to get a nice wide-angle lens, and put your camera on a tripod that lets you swing it around the full circle while staying quite level. If you know the angle of the field-of-view, you can work out how many photos you will have to take, and so how to space your photos around the 360 degrees. The wider the angle, the fewer you need to take. With my fisheye I could get away with three but usually take four--at 90 degrees--to allow more overlap. Then you put the resulting pictures into a stitching program like PTgui (this is about 50 or 60 USD and really excellent). If you use the simple "wizard" you'll get a nice panorama, all beautifully stitched together, with no trouble at all. Doing it with fisheyes is a bit harder, but not much... Probably more than you wanted to know. [grin] The Usefilm panorama forum is the place for these and other tips.

Yes, Henrik, it is Japanese... the spring is almost here. Soon we will have the cherry blossom festival! I'm glad you like the panorama. This one was quite difficult!

Very nice! Panorama is difficult, but it's good and i think the distortion makes it even more interesting.
