My second gigapixel HDR image. Spent a lot of time photoshopping fast-moving details such as the cop car and a people so that very few HDR artifacts remain. Again a lot of work but really happy with the result. Enjoy! |

The town of Kelso in the Scottish Borders is on the junction of the river Teviot and the River Tweed. The castle in the background is Floors Castle, home of the Duke of Roxburghe. Kelso Abbey on the right is from the 13th century. The junction pool under the bridge is famous for salmon fishing. This bridge which crosses the Tweed, was designed by John Rennie of Haddington. His design is unusual in that it has a level road over semi-elliptical arches. Opened in 1803, the bridge has its Toll House on the town side. This demand for tolls led to the reading of the Riot Act in 1854, when the townspeople, tired of paying for the bridge, whose cost they reckoned had long since been covered, rioted. Later, in 1857, the tolls were removed.
Rennie later designed bridges for London, the Kelso Bridge being the design he used for Waterloo Bridge which was completed in 1817. When the Waterloo Bridge was dismantled in 1937, two of the lamp standards from that bridge were gifted to Kelso and still stand at the far end of the bridge from the town. Kelso Abbey on the right is from the 13th century. The junction pool under the bridge is famous for salmon fishing 220 pictures taken with a Canon SX1 on manual settings see also www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=26162 |

http://www.pittsburghforest.org/pennvest09 Funded by PennVest money, five parking lots in East Liberty, a neighborhood in Pittsburgh with over 57% impermeable surfaces, are being landscaped. Friends of the Pittsburgh Urban Forest, in cooperation with the Pittsburgh Parking Authority is adding landscaping to five Pittsburgh Parking Authority surface lots in East Liberty. 91 trees and over 1,000 shrubs will be planted throughout the lots. According to the USDA Forest Service’s STRATUM analysis of Pittsburgh’s street trees, on average, “a single tree intercepts about 1,400 gallons of rainfall annually.” |

Modern Aircraft display, at the National Museum of the Air Force (formally the Air Force Museum) at Wright Patterson AFB (WPAFB), in Dayton Ohio. Summer 2009. Please help and identify as many of these aircraft as possible in snapshots. This is that last of four panaramics that I shot of the museum in August of 2009. I have gone to the museum often during my life and seen radical changes in the layout and location of the museum, from a single building in Area C of the base, they moved to a newly built hanger in Area A by the Wright Brother's Memorial in the 1970s. This has since expanded to two additional hangers and a missile hall, with a fourth hanger in the plans. They also have a presidentional annex hanger accross the flight line, that houses some old AF 1s and presidential helicopters, much to much to see in one day, so if you plan on visiting the sight, make sure that you give yourself a few days to really take in the sight. Most wonderful about it all, is that admission and parking at the museum is free. So support the museum. |
