Panorama Pictures 

These images were made by taking several pictures, panning the camera between each image, and then ‘stitching’ together the individual frames to make a complete panorama. The best stitching program I have found is ‘autostitch’; a free download from www.autostitch.net. It easily beats the routines provided by Canon, or included in Photoshop. My main motivation in making panoramic photos is to create high-resolution desktop images for the triple-monitor display in my office. This uses three Dell 20 inch displays, driven by two video cards. The trick to stretching a single image across three (or two) monitors is to first set the image dimensions (e.g. in Photoshop) to EXACTLY match the total dimensions of the displays. For example, using three monitors with 1200 x 1600 resolution, the image would be sized to 1200 x 4800 pixels. Then simply select the image file as the desktop using the TILE option.If you have a multiple monitor display, please feel free to download any of the high-resolution images here. Some are scaled to 1200 x 4800 pixel resolution; others are at the full original resolution (as much as 40 Mpix) and come with a warning that they will be slow to download!
