Mt. Buller panorama
19 Jul 2005Just to get bandwidth utilisation back to normal, or something ;) The file is 14424 pixels wide, and 407 high. It’s been manually stitched, and isn’t too bad, given I shot the sequence in under two minutes with no great degree of accuracy. 623KB JPEG. Click the image above to be taken to a full size version of the photograph.
If you do happen to click through, note the cloud of smoke spreading from the bushfires! It looks even cooler in these photos:
This one reminds me of the spreading cloud of darkness around… that bad place in Lord of the Rings (I’ve read it, but only endured the first movie–no, I’m not a fan, sorry world). Only it’s not quite so dark. But it reminds me of it anyway. Picture Lord of the Rings with an ugly damn and some sheds in it, or something (I couldn’t satisfactorily crop it, sorry!)…
I’m convinced it looks like there are mushroom clouds in this one… but… there’s not. Looks like explosions in the distance, but the colour (once tweaked a bit) comes out nicely in the photo, in my opinion.
