"Pinhole dreams" was the one that changed my view of pinhole cameras, Terry. I'll be back to take a more leisurely look through your portfolio and probably leave some comments. IR was another area that seemed gimmicky to me until I saw your dreaklike images. You really opened my eyes to some new worlds of photography. As you can see, I'm very much a realistic, journalistic kind of photographer... Do please keep these mind-changing photos coming!

Thanks for the suggestion, Matej. I've just realised that I could actually stitch three or four shots like this into a SINGLE image if I used a tripod and spaced them carefully at equal angles. Then there wouldn't be any white strips between them to disturb people. (Hmmm. A bit extravagant with film, though...) Might end up with the equivalent of a square image measuring 7 x 7cm taken on 35mm film. An interesting idea! Probably easier (better?) to use my new 120-type panorama camera to take a 180-degree panorama all in a single shot. Certainly a lot less bother without the stitching...

I think they are beautiful...the tree bark looks almost silver...and just a beautiful setting...

Still have some doubts if pano is well suited for verticals tho I saw really stunning photos already. The right one is very well done and also well suited to show some of that fascination of trees we both seem to have.

Actually, why stop at three. Even four or five vertical panoramas taken at approximately the same location and placed next to each other - but with spaces in-between - could result in quite an interesting presentation.

Yep, I remember your earlier post of this place. I think placing these two shots together is a step in a direction that is certainly worth exploring. Perhaps it could be interesting to create a triple image, with light conditions in the individual images differing slightly less than they do here.

This is a beautiful spot and you captured it well. I agree with Baki that the white separator is a bit distracting.

Both are beautiful with a tremendous scale of greens. I can understand you like the place. Rob.

Putting them up together seemed like a good idea to me, Chris, because that way I can upload four pictures to Usefilm in the same 24-hour period! (taking advantage of the panorama shape factor.) Actually the reverse of what occurred to you is what actually happened. The two scans were so different (for whatever reason) that I worked very hard to "tweak" the greens to be more or less similar. It was the whitish trunks of the trees that made me stop where I did. They looked quite unnatural if I pushed the greens to look more similar... Sometimes you just can't win.

Beautiful shots, both of them, Roger, I'm just not sure that putting them together is altogether a good idea. For the simple reason that the majority of us 'amateurs' might assume, (without your helpful explanation), that you took them both at the same time, looking in the same direction, and that the colours weren't quite the same because you tweaked them differently. i.e. The average Usefilm user, (such as myself), might just figure that you don't quite know what you're doing, when in fact you very much do! But, then, I guess that's a risk we all take in the pursuit of our 'art'. Best regards, Chris

i liked both of them Roger, as you said "the play of light and shadow, and the beautiful greens, are sooo nice" .. i think the vertical white bar could be narrower,it is a bit distracting, regards Baki
