this new program is awesome!

so far i've only used it to make one panorama, but it turned out amazing, and super easy, took no work on my part, i just had to select the pictures to use in the panorama, and click the make panorama. it did the rest. and it did it VERY well. i can't even tell any breaks between the pictures.

i went down to the creek to set a trap, wearing my regular hiking boots which i wear down there when i don't plan on wading around in the water. well i got to the place where i just hop over a stream to continue on my way to the marsh, but i was stopped to the sight of an extremely flooded stream. i thought it was just flooded because of the rain we've had, so i went all the way back to my house to get waders.

i come back to the stream with waders and go in the water, and as soon as i clear the brier bush, i see that its not flooded at all, the beavers have been busy stopping the creek up! they made a nice little pond right there. i was standing waist deep in water in several places.

so i continued down to the marsh, set my trap, and then went back to play in the new pond. i walked all over it to find out what the bottom was like all over it, and then i was standing in a corner of it and the odd thought came into my head to make a panorama of it.

so i took 8 photos, spanning a little over 180°, and came home to download windows live photo gallery so i could make a panorama out of them.

after a few hours worth of distractions, i got the program, and i was suprised just how easy it was. i literally just had to select the pictures, and click "make a panoramic picture".

it turned out nice. when i go back to get my trap tomorrow, i'm going to take a bunch more panoramic photos, i'm going to try some 360° ones and see how they turn out.

here is the link to the panorama i uploaded on photobucket. photobucket resized it and it looks a LOT better fullsize, but its too big of a file to attach to this post.

Thats pretty neat man wish that was in my backyard haha, is the fishing anygood down there?

haven't really "fished" it, but i set traps down there and catch golden shiners, mudminnows, black nose dace, and pumpkinseeds.

when the weather warms up i'm gonna go down there with an ultralight and try to catch some larger pumpkinseeds.
