Just messing about to see if I could make a panorama in a smaller space!

As usual click on the link BELOW the photograph to view the panoramic image!

Cheers Guys

I'm actually looking for a NICE Series Land Rover to photograph at the moment!

If anyone knows anyone in the Lanarkshire, UK area with such a vehicle - let me know!

That is cool.

Is it done within a program or is there some special bit of kit thats needed to achieve it?

It's just four shots stitched together!

I just use a small program called PTGui for stitching!

Problems with the pano not working yesterday seem to have been cured!

Everything working as it should again!

Seemed to be a server problem at the ISP end.

Mk 3 Diesel Vauxhall Astra - ordinary?

Cars like that don't come cheap you know?

You have to pay at least £500 for a car of this calibre! :lol:

Leave my car alone!

It cost about 1/10th of the cost of the Land Rover Discovery that it replaced and it does about 3 times more mpg than the Land Rover as well!

It's also older than the Land Rover Discovery but the difference is that it still does what it's supposed to (i.e. run) and didn't expensively fall to pieces.
