Thx
Original was not so great, imo. I just checked, there was 7 lamp posts (one being at middle of picture) that I removed from picture and one powerline. Sunset was spectacular at that evening though
I was surprised how easily one can alter pics as this was my first real try on photoshop, my students were also very excited as I teached them how to do it as they asked, didn't know that I can teach photoshop stuff until I found myself teaching it
This time no photoshop, just resized images for more convient uploading with mobile internet.
Shop of God?
Here in Finland, we have these things called lions (he was not hungry type)
Maybe lion escaped from this house?
There is something with this Ixus75, I can't really gasp what it is, but I feel images do lack of something, maybe clarity or maybe colours are always bit off, one thing is that sky often burns white. With Nikon I get more pics that I had in mind.
Should try something else than auto mode sometime, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Thx, it worked out surprisingly well indeed, I did set manual white balance and used camera's panorama function, I believe that handles exposures also.
If any of you like to try making your own panoramas, this little program called AutoStich is really helpful, makes process perhaps bit too easy
Like the panoramic shot too, the Photoshop CS3 batch stitch works surprisingly well too in my experience, although I could've probably exposed the shots better
Ronnie, Fire, Kite flying and sunset are grand, I really really like them.
Mick, your second kite one I also really like Kite photos rock.
Now all you need to do is let both your nippers near some bigger kites Pics from my cam, but not me obviously, couple of mates were playing when I went flying earlier in the year.
I was hugely into kites a few years ago, still play when I get the chance. Used to do mainly trick and 4 line stuff, now mainly landboarding and a bit of kitesurfing. Trick kiting is awesome, must make some time to get playing again!
Mick, try and get to a kite festival nearby if you can, they'll be loads of traders, and you'll get a hefty discount off shop price. Nearest one to you would have been Dunstable, but that was last weekend I believe
That last scenery is very nice, it looks like it would be just one photo as there is no distortions, upper one seem to get bit curved, but of course there is larger angle.
Very nice photos
Panoramas do add lot to many situations, but there are lot of things where one can't really take panorama, like close ups for example.
I post here new photo bit later today, currently having break from electric work, must still do few things today for it.
