On Twitter, my French PureView friend @Massis_ shared a fantastic panorama from the mountains from la Gélinotte in the French Jura (la Vattay, East from the city Grenoble).
I loved that result so much, it made me really curious to see the original panorama. He sent me a link to that, so all I have to do now is share the original shot.
Mind you, it’s 15360 x 3780 pixels (58MP, Apple would say :-) but thanks to compression (and not too many details) it’s less than 4MB large. Here’s the resized version – small of course, since I can only show about 640 pixels wide. But although small, you can really see how perfect this shot is!
But did you notice the sign on the right? Here’s a 640 x 360 crop from the original – I’m sure you will be just as amazed as I was!
Absolutely stunning detail, isn’t it? Sometimes I love this camera so much I can’t even express it anymore. So enjoy the panorama yourself, you’ll find the original here!
Update: as you can see in the reaction, he used 137 vertical images in 16:9 and stitched them in Microsoft’s ICE.











Absolutely fabulous shot! That is also a great program for stitching pictures together. I just found it yesterday.
how did he do the panorama? with what app?
hmm, the camera lovers pack panorama program does 5765 wide I suspect there is about 3 individual images captured at full res mode and then stitched and cropped to form the final image?
Not sure, but my guess is the panorama app in the Camera Lover pack for Symbian (from Scalado, http://store.ovi.com/content/217294?)
No camera lover pack, not this time :) It’s Microsoft ICE (free), 137 images stiched. I shot them in 16:9 vertically.
It was a really nice snowshoe walk, I was alone and took my time to take a lot of pics there (even with the CBD, it was difficult to see exactly what was I shooting)
Some pics were taken in morning and some taken in evening?? shadows are all in not same direction..
Maybe because of clouds passing the sun?
I turned around my sticks. Maybe the different directions you perceive are linked to that : I turned round when the sun stayed broadly static :)
And I can ensure you that it was at least a one hour climb, so I shot the whole panorama in one sequence (took me 15 min).
