The intersection of Forbes Ave. and Murray Ave. forms the heart of Squirrel Hill, a neighborhood a mile from Carnegie Mellon's campus which is home to many students and professors. |

The week preceding Beer Bike Race is called Willy Week and is a period of great excitement on campus.
The main reason for my GigaPan adventure was to take a panorama of the large flower bed that we see before us and when I set up my robot and camera, I saw someone who I had not spoken to in a *number* of months and after we spoke I noticed the two ladies and asked them if they would like to be included in the GigaPan (Ashley is visiting from Massachusetts). At the end of the panorama, we meet Marygrace who was gracious to be included as well. When I first saw her she was studying, so I guess we can say that this GigaPan is of two ladies enjoying Willy Week and one lady, taking a well-deserved study break. This panorama was taken during noontime and as you can see, there are a number of students that can be seen. Willy Week 2009 will be remembered by this College Baseball Game between Rice and the University of Texas: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/college/6318158.html For a similar view taken last October, look at :http://www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=10339 A few moments looking at either of these panoramas in Google Earth can be most rewarding. |

We have seen this view a number of times, but never on a November moring at this time of day and with the blue sky either. In this panorama, we see bordering the Academic Quad; Lovett Hall, Sewall Hall, Rayzor Hall, Fondren Library, Anderson Hall and Herzstein Hall and views of Keck Hall, Engineering Quad and Duncan Hall. This hand-held, 360-degree panorama was taken with a Leica D-Lux 3 camera and was stitched using the GigaPan Stitcher software. Additional details can be found on Stitcher Notes with information there concerning the GigaPan Stitcher run. Note: This glorius panorama can be seen in Google Earth as a curved panorama on a curved surface by clicking the link, View in Google Earth (assuming that you have Google Earth installed on your computer). |

Schools out for summer, and it’s a Saturday, so virtually no one is in the photo. I wanted to get the courtyard below, so I rotated the gigapan 90 degrees so it pointed straight down. In this image the top left is the corner by the airplane, and the lower left to the top of the concert column on the right. There was a incredible amount of overlap towards the horizon, so the stitching there gets a bit crazy. |
