From the Archives: My first panorama

So while adventuring in South America, you may have noticed I have set my blog to auto pilot. I'm too busy having fun on the other side of the world to report on photography experiments in the Pilbara.

A few months ago I went through all my photos and found some of my old photos that when I look back, were my initial inspiration. I came across this photo taken at Port Arthur in Tasmania on a school trip (this one time, at band camp...to clarify I have never to this day seen that movie nor do I want to!). I was using the first digital camera to grace our family - a Ricoh...something. I can't remember but it was blue! It was blue, and I was 16 and freezing.

This is a regular reminiscence. The first time I went over the 2006 band camp photos I was surprised to discover this photo had a partner. I was using a program called ArcSoft at the time to experiment with panoramas taken on my first Kodak - so I experimented to see if they fit.
