Here is a panorama of the Grand Tetons from early May. I locked the exposure and took 9 frames at 40mm on the A700. I used Autostitch for this one too:

That would look terrific right accross a bedroom wall I reckon..a monitor doesn't really do it justice.

Thanks, Greg. We had spent a few days at Grand Teton National Park in May and then on the last morning we were driving north to Yellowstone National Park. I decided to stop and make this panorama. Unfortunately, there were no interesting clouds.

I have been to the Netherlands a couple of times. Beautiful country and I have met a few beautiful Dutch women too. :) Maybe no mountains, but lots of other great opportunities for panoramas. Amsterdam is ripe with opportunity, for example. Give it a try!

Thank you. I am a nomad though so have no permanent wall to mount it on and I definitely don't want to carry it around with me. :) One day we will once again live the rooted life, I guess. I am not really looking forward to that day, but we might, at least, once again get a place to be our homebase.

So far no one else has posted any panoramas. :( They are easy to do. Of course, there is lots of panorama software available, some free, some not free. Here is a very easy to use free program called Autostitch:

Give it a try and post a panorama!

A huge beauty, Henry.
Though I made several stitches, but I don't see them as worthy. Still have to practice. Found out that you cannot make a stitched panorama if a big circle is in the shot, such as the round circle in a big square.

Lovely shot Henry,

Here's one of mine - stitched in PTGUI (I think it was about a dozen images)

The marina at Royal Quays on the river Tyne

Thanks, Doc! Just play around with stuff and you might find something cool. In 2004 when I was going to Tokyo for 3 months, just for fun, I took my digicam and made about 10-15 shots of my room. All over, up, down, left, right, center and then used Autostitch to put them together. It was pretty crazy looking. :) This morning, again with a digicam, I did the same thing for a big banyan tree down by the beach. I took 15 photos that even go to straight overhead. Stitched them with Autostitch. Kind of cool. Give it a try!

Thats some range! Would love some advice on this, it's untouched from tiff in cs3. I find that I get a strange verticle line of magenta? shadowing between some of the frames and a pain in the mule to loose with dodge, clone, heal. I was hoping to print it large so it needs to be good. I have always loved to capture images but never loved printing my knowlege is basic! any recomendations?
