Zoomable Panoramas

Panoramas give you such a unique view but they also loose a lot of what you see, when you just see them in a small resolution. And as my photos are a lot about details, anything above 30Mpix just can be nicely seen in a resolution destined for web. So for those photos, I include a zoomable version, were you can see much more of the photos. I have moved all of them onto one page, which you can find here or through the menu on the right.

Prague

I wanted to do a panorama from the Petrin tower for a longer time, but never got to it. The view is just stunning, as you can see the the whole city. But as always when I was there before, it was completely full of people, I was a little scared if I will be able to use a tripod. But here is where the ugly weather worked in my favor. As the day was quite ugly and only got better around sunrise, the tower was mostly empty and I could shoot as much as I wanted. It shakes a little and having the lens stable at 200mm was not so easy, but a lot of photos worked out. As this is also a big panorama, you can find a zoomable version under Panoramas or directly here. I suggest checking it out :)

This is a manual blend from 5×3 exposures, taken from the Petrin tower in Prague.
