[Ajaxus]

wow, some amazing jaw dropping pictures there. very nice.

[imported_Grouse]

Canon 20d

10-22 ef-s

18-55 ef-s

50mm f1.4

tamron 28-75 f2.8 (sold)

canon 70-200 f4

canon 300 IS f4 (sold)

Canon 580 ex flash with stoffen omni bounce

giottos 9180 tripod

Markins m10 ball head





The first pic is a 14 image stitch of seattle from admiralty point.



next down is chuckanut drive 7 image HDR render



SKip to mount saint helens.



the falls is a 3 image blend/hdr



the one with the crystal reflecting lake is Coldwater lake. It`s a 7 image hdr take with the 10-22 ef-s. there are two little fishermen on the lake and a couple walkin on the board walk.



The cheetah pics are canons 70-200 f4L



Ranier:



the falls is another 7 image HDR



The picture of mount rainier is a 7 image stitch from the parking lot of all places.



Snoqualmie falls



the first 3 images are wide angle shots with the ef-s 10-22 lens. You can see the perspective distortion.



The next shot is a 140 image stitch, yes, 140 image stitch. full resolution is over 100k pixels wide and 60k pixels tall. file size is about 3.7 gigs when saved as a tiff. about 11 gigs when saved as a psd.



the next shot is acctually my first attempt at that mosaic the day before at the same time of day. It is a 70 image stitch. It has alot more issues than the 140 image stitch.



Here is an idea of the real size of some of my mosaics and panorama`s.



I`ll link it. this is a huge image and I had not finished the blending on purpose. so it wil take a long while to load.

here is the pre crop of the 140 image mosaic stitch of snoqualmie falls.
