My wife's parents house has been in the family for 3 generations was haunted by her grandmother for a while. Both grandparents died in the house (different times) but things would move about for no reason. Not see them floating in the air type move, but things put down on the tables would be found somewhere else. This was solved when my mother in law walked about the house and said in a loud voice that they lived in the house now and the grandmother should stop and move on.

Have a good time at work....funny about the cats though. I would have been sneezing my a$$ off since I am allergic.

When I was young, I was very allergic to cats. I couldn't even visit my high school best friend at home because his family had three cats. My eyes and windpipe would swell shut within a couple minutes of walking in their house.

A few years after I graduated from high school, my brother got a cat. Several months later he had to move to a place where he couldn't take it with him, and without really thinking about it, I offered to take the cat. I've never had a problem with cats and allergies since then.

Another excerpt for Cat (really, I need to just finish this thing and stop hanging out here.... Sorry) :

Men will go through these emotions whether it’s at their wedding, or if someone tells them that they need to mow the lawn, or change the light bulb in the hallway.

This is my first ever attempt at panoramas and I am not a happy bunny.

The only way I can see to really improve them is to go back and take the pictures again, and that is not possible. I have posted them in the T&L section looking for tips, but these are beyond help. What was a magnificent vista just looks flat in these.

It is something I would like to do more of so I guess it is down to the old method of practice, practice practice.

The first pano is from 19 separate exposures.

The view certainly looks great, Neil. I guess the problem might be the haze that looks like it's flattening the images, stripping out the tonality. You did a darned sight better than I could have done!

G'MAE all.

Chilling night in here last night.:shock:

Great shot of Christopher with GGma. It really needs a buble with his thoughts. I thought of a couple that would work.:D

Jamie, looks like the kids had a blast in the water. Too bad about the meany heads.:(

Agree with Pete on the pano, looks like the haze is your worst enemy in your Pano. Good view of the vally though. Didn't realize how long that viaduct is until these shots. Whoa and the view really shows off its scale.

Neil.

Go ask Claire how she did this. I think it's the kind of thing you were looking to acheive in the exposure.

For a first attempt (or fifth, or hundredth), these are awesome! I can barely see any joins - maybe a fractionally different tone in the sky in one or two places but that is looking really hard - and I may be wrong anyway - it's not a marked enough difference to do more than say "yeah that's about the only place I can think one might be!" The stray bit of sensor slurm in the second is more noticeable than any hint of a join!

The haze has proved to be a killer - do you have a UV filter on the lens? and early morning tends to be clearer than later in the day when pollution levels rise :roll:

[oops - just checked the EXIF, 08:10 is early morning :o]

I see Pete has linked to a shot from Claire. Also, Scottes was the panorama king a little while back with his shots of Boston. I wonder if he's be able to shed any light on these fore you?
