From the peak of Baldy Mountain at 13,300 feet, a panoramic view of Pyramid Peak, the Maroon Bells, Mount Snomass, Mount Daly, and Mount Sopris. We skinned up to the peak before an afternoon of fabulous backcountry skiing. |

Kotzebue Alaska as viewed from the hill above town. Stitched from 27 hand held frames shot in portrait orientation. Note the occasional "shivering artifact". Have fun searching for the third dog sled team. |

About 80% of the area of this image is in the town of Salisbury, Vermont. This view to the west from Burnt Mountain includes the entire 17 mile width of the Champlain Valley, with the Adirondacks in distant New York. As is true throughout the valley, the forests are young and the agricultural fields are old – trees older than 150 years are uncommon, but the fields have been cultivated a few decades longer than that. In the foreground fields, corn has been planted. In the middle ground, the first cutting of hay is in and manure slurry has been sprayed on some hayfields.
Notes: Photos were taken with an old Reflex-Nikkor 500mm lens (f8 only) which vignettes badly. All 460 photos were run through Photoshop (via Bridge) to reduce vignetting (the top rows need more work). I failed to attach the critical rear mounted filter on the lens for these shots. The Nikon D40 was on a GigaPan Epic 100.

On the right is perennial Intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium), a close relative of our major annual crop wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seen on the left. The view shows the deep (5 – 6 foot) root structure of wheatgrass beside the roots of wheat predominantly in the 18” range. Wheatgrass is a potential grain crop on its own; we are working with genetically diverse populations selecting for crop-like traits.
