The Chicago River, http://www.chicagoriver.org, was crucial to Chicago’s development into a major center. The first moveable bridge, several of which are pictured here, was constructed at Dearborn Street in 1834. Dyed green every St. Patrick’s day and flowing backwards from its original mouth at Lake Michigan, the Chicago River is still vital to the community ecologically and aesthetically.

Six Mile bend on the Fraser River at Fountain gorge north of Lillooet, BC.
This is my first uploaded Gigapan!!! (on a dial-up, no less!) It took 9hr. 40min to upload. About this area: The Fountain area of the Fraser has been inhabited by the local natives (Xaxli'p First Nation) for more than 8000 years. It's also one of the hottest and driest parts of BC with temps reaching 45C in midsummer. The railway line in the lower foreground is CN, formerly part of the PGE which snakes along the Fraser from Lillooet to Pavilion and then climbs the steep grades to Kelly Lake and Clinton. |

This GigaPan was shot as the slices of bread surrounding the cold cuts in a "GigaPan sandwich". The day began sunny and I began to shoot a very large GigaPan from this lovely vantage point in downtown Keeseville, New York. About halfway through shooting this GigaPan sequence clouds rolled in. After about a half hour of shooting and another half hour spent waiting for the sun to return I finally got frustrated and gave up on the sunny image, aborting about midway through the originally planned shot.
Realizing that I had bitten off too much, I decreased the zoom and set up the same shot at lower resolution and optimized for cloudy conditions. This shot was completed (after a few pauses when the sun poked out again) and can be seen here: http://www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=27062 By the time I finished the cloudy GigaPan, I saw a stretch of sunny skies headed my way again. I scrambled to set up the shot parameters that I could recall from the original sequence and positioned the camera as close as I could to the place where I previously left off. Once the sun came back out I embarked on completing the second half of the sunny image. Clouds returned before I completed the last three rows of the originally planned image, but by then I had successfully captured most of the interesting detail of the scene. You can see where the GigaPan is offset horizontally by about a quarter of a frame. Nonetheless, I had enough overlap that the Stitcher was able to successfully and seamlessly put together the two halves of this sunny image and salvage a GigaPan that at least approximates what I was originally shooting for. The moral of this story: shooting GigaPans on a partly cloudy day may cause much consternation and gnashing of teeth, but if one is patient and observant of the weather conditions a decent GigaPan (or two) may still be salvaged. |
