CampX, I really like those two panoramas. There is something peaceful about them. Very nice.

Thanks!
The lens and camera simply deliver, and with the massive donwsizing there is loads of detail and very good contrast, even in cases where the individual images are not tack sharp (mostly due to shaky tripod/pano head).
Here's a crop (about center of image) from the first image in my last post. You can see how dramatically DOF increases because of the downsizing:

Cool stuff, I had to try something similar. Helios 44M-4, a lens that I bought awhile back to test against my 44M-6, but never got aound to using. Figured I'd giver a try, so I took it to work and played around in my free time. Canon 7D as body.
Took 117 shots of this tree overlooking the Lornex Pit, at f2.0, small jpegs, ISO 100, handheld.......stitched in ICE, then processed in CS5. Massive downsizing. Observation - Helios 44M-4 very sharp even at f2, and with everything stitched together the resolution is crazy!

Heres a couple more of the mine I work at, all taken with the Helios 44M-4 on my 7D. Handheld, stitched in ICE.
View of the top edge of the westwall expansion in the Valley Pit, the tailings pond, and across the valley at Bethlehem. Crazy awesome clouds and weather blowing thru.

Lornex Pit and expansion.
120-ish shots stitched. Severly downsized from the original size!

Thanks guys! I really wish on days like this, I could have my tripod and a graduated neutral density filter and all the 'good stuff' I normally carry....because these are at work, I kinda 'go light' on the equipment! Its pretty amazing what a cheap old manual lens can do, when using techniques like stitching. I have almost stopped carrying my newer Tokina 12-24mm, since I started playing with manual lenses like the Yashica 50mm F2 ML, Helios 44M-4 and -6, and a Tokina RMC 24mm F2.8.

Not as exciting as these recent shots by others, but here is an 11-shot 180 degree vertical from 1Ds2, with the Bell + Howell (Samyang) 35/1.4, @ f/8, ISO 200.

Here's another one with the 35/1.4 @ f/8, ISO 100.

Took advantage of the ridiculously late sunrise and the peak of fall leaves in Washington, DC to try to get back into get back into my photography groove. It has some sharpness and color issues, but I think the composition worked. Panasonic G2, Micro-Nikkor 105 f/2.8 AIS, on a PhotoClam PT-224 tripod with an Induro PHQ-1 and an RRS Omni Pivot (although this is a single-row pano).
