We are legion

This photo is a mega panorama that requires special instructions to truly appreciate it. Watch it on the biggest screen you have. Click it to open it fullscreen. Then click the round "target" icon and wait for the original size to load. Then, zoom (mousewheel) and pan (drag) around. You can go quite deep and inspect the details of hundreds of individual Wildebeests.

  Awesome Ferdy! I love your panoramas! I just purchased an Olympus Tough camera to hold me over until I save enough for an SLR and it has a panorama function on it. I am anxious to try it out and play around with it! Posted 11 years ago

    Thanks! Enjoy the Olympus.
    
    For the record, this one wasn't even created with an in-cam panorama. It's shot by hand and then stitched together in Photoshop. Posted 11 years ago

Thanks! I kind of wondered if that's what you did for these. They are done very well! Posted 11 years ago

  Thank you, but I must admit that I was highly surprised to find it working so well. All my mega panoramas are done by hand, without a tripod even. The true magic happens in Photoshop, which somehow magically stitches them together without any seams. That's insane given the perspective shifts as a result from shooting by hand.
