Panorama: Playa Funchi, Bonaire


This was taken about a year and a half ago. I was just going through old pictures and noticed that I'd taken a panorama at this particular beach (playa). This beach is at the northernmost tip of the island of Bonaire, and is a part of the huge nature preserve there.

I've never seen such large parrotfish, anywhere.

Panorama: Hurricane Ridge March 2008


Since we're so awfully, painfully close to the start of the snowboarding season here in the Pacific Northwest, I was inspired to go back to this set of images from last season and stitch some of them together. They aren't the best source images, as the little lens on the Powershot doesn't do so well in flat light, but it's still a great view.

Enjoy, and think cold thoughts.

Panorama: Pritchard Island Beach #2


This time I remembered to lock the white balance, and definitely took more time getting the exposure right. It makes all the difference.

It doesn't look like there's much wind, but it's gusting up to 25 knots. If you're bored, you can see why I think windsurfing is better than cycling. It is, you know.

Panorama: Narada Falls, Mt. Rainier

If you enter the park at the Paradise entrance, you'll encounter these falls about 15 miles in from the entrance. There's a short, steep path to a natural viewpoint.



Managed to remember to lock the white balance this time. It's definitely overexposed, though. Having so much detailed material in the center of each shot meant that autostitching the images worked flawlessly.

Panorama: Pritchard Island Beach

Went sailing at Pritchard's Island beach on Lake Washington the other day, and it's a really nice launch. There's a grass rigging area mercifully free of duck and dog shit and a trivial carry to a small, sandy beach.

So I made a panorama, and forgot to lock the white balance. Nice going.


I'm using panotools with Panowizard. I didn't spend much time stitching this one together because, quite frankly, the images aren't that good.
