But for the nonce it is nice to take these opportunities to get out on two wheels aagin. While stopped here, I took some photos that I could later stitch into a panorama with Panorama Maker4, and this was the result.

It's interesting how the program distorts what are, in reality, straight lines, like the egdes of the road and especially the overhead wires. -- PL

Photoshop type programs can do wonders with pictures. Sometimes it will make one wonder what the orginial atmosphere was.
Maybe the local paper would interested in your knack for photography?;)
Have you ever heard of a "cirkut camera?" Used at the turn of the 20th century, you mounted it on a tripod and cranked it, turning the head. The result was 360 degree photos, with the image recorded a bit at a time (so several seconds pass between the far left to far right of the photo). You could get the same result manually as what you're doing with your panoramic shots.
Used to work at a museum and talk about this stuff.
