I first posted these as a new thread, but here seems to be a better place (i will remove the separate thread). Thanks to trice and briantho for helping me on the practical side of posting actual images.
Recently i started experimenting with panorama's, and i'm enjoying it a lot.
The picture was taken yesterday maybe ten minutes before sunrise, when the light was mysteriously tranquil and dreamlike.
The Amstel hotel a couple of days earlier at the end of the afternoon of a grey day. The sun was trying to get through the clouds, but never really succeeded. There's a couple of people installing lights on the roof, probably to prepare for Amsterdam Light Festival (the English version isn't working that well, unfortunately). http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8489/8237848922_d2c6f4e093_h.jpg
Hey y'all. This thread has been great to read through and inspired me to take a stab at some panos. The goal was to emulate large-format levels of detail, and give enough detail to do perspective distortions without destroying the image.
Here is my first decent attempt - Madison Square Park in NYC, as seen from my office. It's about 16 shots, adding up to about 100MP.
There are some paralax errors I think, so I'll need to refine the technique. Maybe I'll think about a pano head. Has anyone tried this one? It's the only one I've found that's reasonably priced: http://gregwired.com/pano/pano.htm
Keep the panos and discussion coming, very interesting.

Just got my upgrade email... I will take a look at the new features, but honestly, I would be happier if they would spend their time making the interface better, and improving the algorithms. It is still quite glitchy.

I did spot a few on the vertical corner on the right, I've had good luck with Photoshop's stitching, there are a few free progs out there that may do a better job.

Looks ok to me,
