Vista de Alicante desde el Puerto, inicialmente se hicieron 176 fotografías con una Canon 5DII y un 300/4, parte de la imagen ha sido recortada por debajo para mejorar el encuadre y eliminar una gran zona sin interés en el agua, primero hice una fotografía más general del puerto unos dias antes, pero al explorarla descubrí que había obreros escalando la muralla del castillo para restaurarlo
http://gigapan.org/gigapans/34823/snapshots/103684/ Eso me hizo volver para intentar un nuevo gigapan con mucho más detalle, esta panorámica se ha montado con autopano giga con una proyección rectilinear, la misma imagen se montó también con gigapan stitcher con un tiempo de procesado mucho más rápido, y se puede ver aquí. http://gigapan.org/gigapans/35146/ |

I wanted to take a panorama of the new recreation building just completed within the past two weeks (We had seen this building nearing completion as we took an earlier GigaPan from the Rice Stadium: http://www.gigapan.org/gigapans/29860/snapshots/91283/) and as I prepared to start, Fernanda walks by and she and I both admire the beauty of this new structure.
Note: This panorama is comprised of 20 photos, and each is 300dpi and is not a 360-panorama. An earlier stitch using files that are 72 dpi and is a 360-panorama can be found via this link: http://gigapan.org/gigapans/c4ff0c34e265f28ae615f38153e8fba4/. Both files are viewable in Google Earth via the link, View in Google Earth. The panorama was taken using a Nikon D70 with a Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 lens and was stitched using the GigaPan Stitcher. Additional details can be found under Stitcher Notes. |

Does anyone see anything to study in this area? Oops! I see that I touched a "how stupid can you be" nerve...so I found the following: "long-term monitoring and ecological study of the Devereux Slough ecosystem. Devereux slough, located at the University managed Coal Oil Point Reserve (Sands Beach) is a seasonally flooded coastal wetland. During the past fifty years, expanding agricultural and urban development has significantly altered the slough system. Such alterations have caused an increase in sedimentation to the system, an increase in water temperature and a decrease in dissolved oxygen. To investigate the changes in slough parameters, this study focuses on invertebrate and fish species diversity and abundance, hydrological characteristics such as bathymetry, oxygen, salinity and temperature measurements and nutrient inputs."

Great, now (6-2-09) there is a black bear running around the beach...there go our walks:
http://www.ksby.com/Global/story.asp?S=10466306 "Tuesday, June 2, 2009 Reported by: Amber Lee (ksby, channel 6 tv, news) An unusual sighting had people on the South Coast talking Tuesday. A black bear was spotted at the Coal Oil Point Reserve in Goleta at about 8:00 a.m. Tuesday. A biologist with the U.S. Geological Survey happened to snap some photos of the bear's paw prints on the beach. He says in one photo, the bear tracks lead out of the ocean, where the bear took a dip before it was disturbed. The biologist also took a photo where he put his driver's license next to the paw prints for scale. The bear was last seen walking toward nearby dunes." |

Evergreen Drive separates the park from the houses on the north. The Santa Ynez range of coastal mountains are in the background. There is the Evergreen Disc Golf Course running throughout the park (see: http://members.cox.net/evergreen/ ) which can be hazardous to the casual park walker, but gives a cheap sports outlet for many folks. |
