Another Winter Panorama

I was at the Holland State Park Beach this weekend with a couple of friends, and despite the -20 or colder wind chill, we managed to get a few photos of the sunset. As we were on our way back to the car I took 17 pictures that I combined to create the panorama below. Please click the image to see it in larger detail.

Winter Panorama

It's been a while since I uploaded anything here. I have been taking pictures regularly, but have been lacking posts. I will try to get on that more now that the months are colder.

Valley of the Sun Panorama

This week I flew into Tempe, AZ for business. Leaving the fridged 20 degree weather in Michigan and landing in a nice 60 degrees is quite refreshing. It actually felt good to be outside, something that people here tend to forget during the winter months.

I was there for three nights and each night I had a chance to get out and take some pictures. I took about 1000 shots in the few days I was there. I'm in the process of picking the best ones and editing them in photoshop. Here are the first of many shots to come. These two panoramas are from my last night in town, and were taken on the top of a mountain in Papago Park. Well, to a Michigander it was a mountain. I'm sure they would have called it a hill in Ariziona.

I used hugin to create these panoramas.

Winter Sunset Panorama

I have been editing some of my sunset photos the past couple of days. I wanted to have some more pictures to upload but after making this one in hugin, I couldn't wait to upload it. There are more sunsets where this came from. Expect to see them in the near future.

This panorama consists of 7 images taken on a D5000. Using 55-200mm lens, these were taken at 55mm.
