This is a big gigapan I shot on Saturday evening. It's a huge Gigapan and took 16 hours to stitch. 47 images wide X 23 images tall totaling 1081 images.
I missed some of the balloons on the first pass so I backed the unit up and reshot a section. The lighter background in the sky was caused when I readjusted the exposure during shooting. The sun was setting fast and light was fading.

A bit of work in progress. This is just a winter project to keep idle hands busy! This is an electric powered radio controled airplane with two electric motors. It is also a biplane as you can see by the many wings. |

The airport is full with 5 planes waiting for the fog in Kathmandu to clear before leaving and allowing other planes to arrive.
There are two images "hidden" in this panorama that were taken in Kathmandu. One is obvious; can you find the other? (Hopefull no one will spoil the hunt by taking a snapshot of either.) |

I am uploading this Gigapan a second time after cropping off the jagged edges and replacing the mountain top image that was blurry in the initial upload on June 11, 2009.
My experimental decision to use the "Infinity" focus on the Nikon P90 for this Gigapan worked out generally OK. However, in the left bottom foreground the rocks and dandilions, surprisingly were sometimes in focus and other times not. It would be interesting to try to shoot a Gigapan where objects close to the camera were in sharp focus as well as those in the distance. It would take a lot of time and processing work, but it seems possible to reshoot and replace some of the single tiled images to create this effect. |
