Thanks, Antonella. The image is too small for you to see, but many of the people are blurred because of the long exposure.

Cheers,

Matej, the camera is forced to take more than 360-degrees' worth of panorama, especially at high shutter speeds (i.e. fast rotation) to allow the rather large mass of the camera to come up to speed. I only need the bare 360 degrees for my VR displays on the Internet, and the "excess" is often improperly exposed anyway. Also, I already use the largest album pages available in Japan! So out come the scissors! I must say it gave me a pang the first time I did it...

Ah, that's "Roger," Hugo, not Richard...
Thank you, all the same [grin]. The other day I visited a famous old bridge in Tokyo, "preserved" from about 100 years ago... but they built a highspeed motorway intercharge over and around it. The contrast is, well, surprising. Hope it comes out. If it doesn't appear in the next week or so you'll know it was a failure...

Hi Richard, I think the station creates a very good scenery for this panoramic rotary shot. Very lively and a very playful lineplay. Very good shot!
Cheers,
Hugo

Good lord, you cut the negatives? Why not get a bigger album - or some other storage module - instead?

Sorry, Matej, only half of the face appeared inside the frame and needed to be cloned out! The rest is on the cutting room floor as the negs are too long to fit into my album unless I trim the overlapping bits away. (I think the censor would have prevented its public display in any case.)

Matsukawa San, the people are all blurred, and I cloned out your face from the right-hand end of the photo, so I'm not sure it would make a good A3 print. Also I didn't use the maximum scan resolution... but I will send you the file so you can look at it. I'm glad you like it! This was one of the first places I wanted to use the Voyageur, and it looks as if my instinct was right...

Thanks, Chris! The "blurry" refers to the passers by, who are almost all blurred by the long exposure... This was a 180-degree shot that by mistake turned into a 360-degree shot. As a result, there was a VERY surprised face at the extreme right, which I cloned out using PSP. Yes, I freely confess to this lapse from photographic purity!

If you can send me the original file, I want to print this out in A3 size.

For you this might be 'blurry', Roger, but for many other UF contributors this woud be considered 'sharp'!! I continue to marvel at the workings of that panoramic camera of yours.
This shot is wonderful ~ it just brought a big smile to my face! The brightness of it?the detail?the movement?the perfect composition?I could go on!!
Excellent work, my friend. Keep 'em coming!!
Best regards, Chris
P.S. I hope you enjoy my Wells Cathedral shots! Now, if only you could take your Voyageur in there!! Wow!!
