Roadcut in shales south of Wilson Lake, Kansas. Can you identify it's proper place in the stratigraphy (http://www.kgs.ku.edu/Publications/Bulletins/189/09_meso.html#CRET) of the region? |

For my hundredth Gigapan I decided to reshoot one of my earliest panoramas (http://www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=1877). Once again I broke out the tele-converter lens for my Canon S5-IS, but this time I allowed enough overlap between adjacent photos in order to get rid of the vignetting in the original. This one is also my first stitch with the new Gigapan Stitcher 0.3.1820 - worked smoothly for me. |

To the best of my knowledge this GigaPan is the world's first full gigapixel anaglyph image. In order to view the image in 3D you'll need a pair of red/blue anaglyph glasses (you may have a pair in your collection of National Geographic Magazines). Warning: although I've done what I could to minimize it, if you view this GigaPan at full zoom the image separation in some regions of this image may be more that your eyes can fully adjust to - zoom out a bit and save yourself the headache. For more information about anaglyph images see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaglyph_image If you enjoyed this anaglyph GigaPan you may also enjoy my other two anaglyph GigaPans: 1) Saline River Valley - http://www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=3527 2) Castle Rock Badlands - http://www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=12345 And another one: http://www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=18692 I've also created lots of other non-anaglyph images: http://www.gigapan.org/viewProfile.php?userid=1252 Stitching Info (Left Camera): GigaPan Stitcher version 0.4.3510 (Windows) Panorama size: 1155 megapixels (64730 x 17849 pixels) Input images: 341 (31 columns by 11 rows) Field of view: 106.6 degrees wide by 29.4 degrees high (top=12.0, bottom=-17.4) Settings: Keep projected images Original image properties: Camera make: Canon Camera model: Canon PowerShot S5 IS Image size: 3264x2448 (8.0 megapixels) Capture time: 2008-12-20 11:55:28 - 2008-12-20 12:15:14 Aperture: f/4 Exposure time: 0.0015625 ISO: 80 Focal length (35mm equiv.): 435.8 mm Digital zoom: off White balance: Fixed Exposure mode: Manual Horizontal overlap: 35.7 to 42.0 percent Vertical overlap: 35.5 to 40.8 percent Computer stats: 3069.98 MB RAM, 2 CPUs Total time 3:13:59 (0:34 per picture) Alignment: 55:28, Projection: 16:31, Blending: 2:01:58 Stitching Notes (Right Camera): GigaPan Stitcher version 0.4.3510 (Windows) Panorama size: 1153 megapixels (64497 x 17892 pixels) Input images: 341 (31 columns by 11 rows) Field of view: 82.4 degrees wide by 22.9 degrees high (top=7.4, bottom=-15.5) Settings: Keep projected images Original image properties: Camera make: Canon Camera model: Canon PowerShot S5 IS Image size: 3264x2448 (8.0 megapixels) Capture time: 2008-12-20 11:56:00 - 2008-12-20 12:15:46 Aperture: f/4 Exposure time: 0.0015625 ISO: 80 Focal length (35mm equiv.): 435.8 mm Digital zoom: off White balance: Fixed Exposure mode: Manual Horizontal overlap: 35.5 to 40.2 percent Vertical overlap: 35.7 to 42.7 percent Computer stats: 3069.98 MB RAM, 2 CPUs Total time 2:53:38 (0:30 per picture) Alignment: 35:54, Projection: 16:42, Blending: 2:01:01 You can see a video of the dueling GigaPan units used to capture this anaglyph here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di0ug9x9ur8 Anaglyph creation completed in Photoshop CS3 following the general method detailed at: http://www.scec.org/geowall/makeanaglyph.html Placement in Google Earth is a compromise between the satellite imagery and the digital elevation model which are not currently well registered. |

A drill rig is set up to put in another oil well in this field in southern Rooks County, Kansas. Numerous active pumpjacks and holding tanks are visible, as well as the grain elevators in Zurich, Kansas in the distance. |

Looking up from the base of the talus slope along the Presidents Trail one gets a close up look at the four presidents against an azure blue sky. |
