another gigapan for Dannette. Pawnee Rock overlook.
This historical park protects a bluff of Dakota sandstone on the north side of town. Hunters and Santa Fe Trail riders used the Rock to find buffalo and enemies. The property became a state park in the early 1900s, and the pavilion was finished in 1920. Today, the outcrop is for sightseeing and picnicking. From here, you can see several towns besides Pawnee Rock Canon PowerShot SX110 IS |

This is one of three Gigapans for Dannette. Only she knows why. Canon PowerShot SX110 IS
To travelers on the Santa Fe Trail, this sandstone citadel marked the halfway point of the trail and was one of the most prominent landmarks on their long journey. Native Americans were said to have met at Pawnee Rock and reputedly used it as a vantage point to spot bison herds and approaching wagon trains. |

This scene from the Smoky Hill River Festival in Salina, Kansas, was taken from near the center of the Ice Rink. You see Stage II centered between the Fine Arts Area on the left and the Crafts Area on the right. This is only a glimpse of the four day annual festival showing my favorite of the four performance stages with the other stages, children’s areas, 30+ food venders, roaming acts, demonstration areas, installations, and the rest of the sights, sounds, aromas and flavors beyond.

This an experiment mounting the GigaPan horizontally. The original image had 18 rows x 40 columns but would not stitch. An error message referred to running out of memory. So, I deleted 3 rows and it completed. Air movement during the session caused branches to move a bit which might cause trouble for the stitcher. The original composition wasn't quite as wide as I planned, the loss of 3 rows narrows it more, and I look forward to trying something similar again. |
