Coca Cola no doubt intended for this park to be used by business types, or perhaps for the students of the local university, Georgia Tech. Alas, Atlanta does not take good care of its citizens and the park is used as a place to sleep for the many homeless. And Georgia Tech students are kept from the park by a fence, or perhaps the residents of the park are kept from Georgia Tech. |

Taken from the Singapore River, near Boat Quay, this is a 36-photo panorama taken on a Canon G10, with the Gigapan Epic. Around 7:45 pm. Each exposure was 5 seconds. However, each shot was approx 26 seconds, to allow time for the Gigapan to move to the next shot and also to allow for the 10-second self-timer. This appeared to be necessary to prevent any lingering motion jitter or motion, arising from the activation of the Gigapan's motors. |

I am getting better at taking these Gigapan photos. This image is sharper and the stitching lines are almost not visible. I plan to geotag this one and hope that it is acceptable for being included in the Google Earth Gigapan layer.
I have also created an experimental Google Earth "Photo Geotagged tour" of the same downtown building area. (Mar24_09Downtown Boise Tour.kmz) This KMZ file can be found on my video blog post about this Gigapan image. http://gogrimm-vlog.blogspot.com/2009/04/experimental-gigapan-interactive-photo.html |

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! |

A very cool and unsung view of the city. The Parks Conservancy is working with Find the Rivers! and other community groups to develop a "greenprint" for the Hill District. Part of the project is creating an overlook on this site. |

A view down Hennepin Avenue in downtown Minneapolis. Block E on the left is a major urban redevelopment project that turned a blighted city block into an entertainment complex. You'd have thought they'd have found a more exciting name for it. The Masonic temple was completed in 1890 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. It is now used as a teaching and performance space by the Hennepin Center for the Arts. The pano also shows the construction of the new Twins stadium and the historic Shubert Theater, which was moved to its present site -- all 2900 tons of it -- in 1999, one of the heaviest buildings ever moved http://science.howstuffworks.com/heaviest-building-moved1.htm. The photo was made with a Canon G10 and a Raynox DCR-1540 1.54X auxiliary lens, giving an effective 35mm focal length of 219mm. |
