spacer This is a gigapan I took from the Rankin Bridge of Braddock, PA. It was taken right before the torrential downpour that flooded Millvalle and reportedly produced a tornado that touched down in downtown Pittsburgh. The before-the-rain-haze might not make such a good photo, huh?

spacer This image was a preliminary study for the creation of a detailed, 360-degree panorama of the Pittsburgh area from the top of the US Steel Tower and produced in conjunction with an investigation being conducted by David Bear at Carnegie Mellon University's Studio for Creative Inquiry. For information: highpointpark@cmu.edu.

To improve on this gigapan, it would be nice to build a rig to (safely) support a Gigapan and camera further out, so that one could see straight down to Grant St.

spacer For comparison, I took two gigapans from this location: one with my A640, and one with the CREATE lab's SD800. This is the result of the latter. The exposure seems better on this one... :-(
