And a few more ...

Eilean Donan Castle



Ben Nevis



Passing Loch Cluanie (on the way to Eilean Donan again)



Upper Loch Torridon



The A832 between Kinlochewe and Lubmore



Loch Ness




There were actually lots more, but I guess I should have read how to work the camera beforehand

Thanks John

About the only other traffic I encountered on the whole road was a chappie in a silver Legacy (with a windsurfer strapped to the roof) giving it beans ahead of me

He'd seen me closing in for about a mile, so pulled over, waved me through - then had some fun trying to hang onto my coat-tails

Cheers guys

The panoramics are actually multiple shots welded together; the last one of Loch Ness is built up from 6 and is shrunk down from the original 7676 x 1056

John, I checked in on Louie before popping up north last weekend and he's gone into hibernation (or maybe it's a coma), so I left a banana on top of his box for when he wakes up Maybe another event at Kames would be just the thing to rise him from his slumber ?

Love the panoramic shots Stu

What did you use to stitch them together? Do you get much curvature between the images?

More of mine to follow tonight, may get the SLR ones done this weekend too

Chris,

I used something called PhotoStitch that came bundled with the camera. Let me know if you'd like to try an evaluation copy, as AFAIK it'll just accept any old sequence of JPEG's.

The one of Loch Torridon had the most curvature, as the software appears to use an algorithm that tries to identify a horzontal line to use as a base, and chose the shoreline of the far side of the loch - rather than the edge of the car park in the foreground.

It's not the fanciest bit of software I've ever used (as there's no ability to tweak the alignment of the images), but for a bundled app I'm not complaining
