Did for me...

Very Nicely Done

This would be a great location to do a Day To Night Pano. First frame at like 2pm and each successive frame taken an hour later all the way to dark in the last frame.

clicking does not bring up a higher res version.
It is a zoomify view and requires flash be installed.


Thanks PP, I'd like ot go backand get a day shot one day....

That is just stunning, haven't come across this type of hi-res presentation before. How many shots did you take for the pano?

wow, this is a great pano. Even when zoomed in, the buildings are still clear. How many shots is this comprised of and what did you shoot this with?

Awesome pano.

I'm also very curious about the details of how you shot this.

Thanks all, please forgive the slow responce, I'm on vacation :)

I think this was about 15 shots stitched together. I shot it with my 1DMKIII and a 17-40L at around 40mm. I used a Nodal Ninja tripod head and shot the images in portrait mode. They are all 30 second exposures.

I stitched in in Photoshop CS3 and then used the export to Zoomify feature on the high-res version.

I did this all on my laptop, I'll be able to do a better job when I get home and have a faster machine to work on with some better software.

Thanks again. :)

I just got home and I can't wait to have another go at this one. I got some great shots of the city from a boat trip too.

Really great work! I was trying to shoot panoramas yesterday and its a lot of fun. I read in an article I think by O'Reilly and he suggested to take portrait pics for panoramas. I have to try that.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks again, I got home yesterday and I have a ton of images to process. I'd like to have another go at this one though and see if I can't clean it up some.

I updated the color version last night and it is a bit cleaner then the original I posted.

I did a B&W version too while I was at it. Click for the hi-res version of the BW.
