A beautiful evening at the 2009 Bristol balloon fiesta saw over 90 balloons launched from Ashton Park. Great to see the piper flying again after many years. Spot the UP balloon with it's house underneath too. The tower is the camera obscura, the first panoramic viewer where you view the image projected through the periscope on a white dished horizontal table.

Between two big thunderstorms I had time for a few panoramas. The watercolorist whose booth is in the foreground is Richard Graves http://richardgraveswatercolors.com

What a perfect evening for Gigapanning! Good light (no clouds), no wind, and a beautiful view (for Kansas). I think I managed to miss shooting any of the boats on the lake, but if you look at the water you can see the wake of one of them as it approaches the camera - it gives you a sense of the time it takes for the pan to progress. Got lucky to catch the geese - it'd be nice if the Gigapan robot had a pause option that allowed one to move to a grid square (like Last Panorama does) so one could catch transient phenomena that the normal progress of the pan might miss. |

I have had the fortune to go to the Twelve Apostles twice now and both times it has been hazy. No big deal, just wish I could have taken a GigaPan on a nice clear day. In this GigaPan, the different colors of the cliff on the right are from where the sun did come out of the clouds for a while and then went back behind the clouds. The washed out area in the middle is where the sun came out, and the colorful areas are where the sun was behind the clouds. This is the first of three GigaPans I took here.
Since I couldn't put it any more concisely, here is a description from www.visitvictoria.com The Twelve Apostles are giant rock stacks that rise majestically from the Southern Ocean and are the central feature of the rugged Port Campbell National Park. The Twelve Apostles are the remnants from constant erosion of the limestone cliffs of the mainland that began 10-20 million years ago. The stormy Southern Ocean and blasting winds gradually eroded the softer limestone, forming caves in the cliffs. The caves eventually became arches and when they collapsed rock stacks up to 45 metres high were left isolated from the shore. The Twelve Apostles are located just east of Port Campbell, along the Great Ocean Road. - visitvictoria.com |
