This is the second of three GigaPans I took on the 21st of December 2008 of the Twelve Apostles. The first picture was taken just out of view in the right center of the picture where the elevated walkway goes out of sight.
Since I couldn't put it any more concisely, here is a description from www.visitvictoria.com The Twelve Apostles are giant rock stacks that rise majestically from the Southern Ocean and are the central feature of the rugged Port Campbell National Park. The Twelve Apostles are the remnants from constant erosion of the limestone cliffs of the mainland that began 10-20 million years ago. The stormy Southern Ocean and blasting winds gradually eroded the softer limestone, forming caves in the cliffs. The caves eventually became arches and when they collapsed rock stacks up to 45 metres high were left isolated from the shore. The Twelve Apostles are located just east of Port Campbell, along the Great Ocean Road. - visitvictoria.com |

I have had the fortune to go to the Twelve Apostles twice now and both times it has been hazy. No big deal, just wish I could have taken a GigaPan on a nice clear day. In this GigaPan, the different colors of the cliff on the right are from where the sun did come out of the clouds for a while and then went back behind the clouds. The washed out area in the middle is where the sun came out, and the colorful areas are where the sun was behind the clouds. This is the first of three GigaPans I took here.

The Sculpture by the Sea exhibition in Sydney and Perth is Australia's largest annual outdoor sculpture exhibition. This exhibition was initiated in 1996, at Bondi Beach and it featured sculptures which were made by both Australian and overseas artists. In 2005 a companion event was established at Cottesloe Beach in Western Australia. In 2009 it was announced that Aarhus in Denmark would host the first Sculpture by the Sea exhibition outside of Australia.
This image is looking south over Tamarama Beach. Artworks can be seen scattered across the beach amongst the sun bathers. See if you can tell the beach regulars from the art visitors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sculpture_by_the_Sea http://sculpturebythesea.com/ |

Panorama of Coffs Harbour Jetty Beach and Jetty. The Marina with Mutton Bird Island.
The Beach (at low tide), was used as a landing strip for Avro 504 and Bristol Bi-Planes in the 1920's. There seem to be a few faults with the stitching on the horizon of the panorama. Will try to figure out how to correct this in the future....Could it possibly be the software.....? |
