Experimenting with Panoramas

One of the things I had always meant to try was putting together some of those neat panorama photos that you often see. You know, the ones where you stand in one place and take multiple, overlapping photos of a scene around you. Then you stitch them together in your favourite photo editing software and make one gigantic photo out of each individual photo.

Over time, I had taken a lot of photos with the intention of stitching them together, but I never got around to actually assembling the images until recently. I'll have to dig through my photo archives to see what else I've taken that can be assembled, but here are a few of the recent ones I've done… (click through to view them on Flickr)

The Scott Kelby World Wide Photo Walk was held on July 24th, 2010. This is a giant event where photographers take to the streets of their locale and walk around taking pictures. This year saw 1,111 photo walks and 33,483 participants from all over the world.

I didn't know about this event until a co-worker mentioned it to me. Unfortunately, the Calgary/Inglewood photo walk that he was going to was already full, but I found that there was plenty of room in the Calgary/Downtown photo walk, so I signed up.
