Panoramas: Part 1

Do you ever have software sitting on your computer that you just wish you knew how to use? Well, a few years ago, I bought a package including Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop/Reader and pretty much just used the Illustrator/Reader parts without really knowing what to do with Photoshop. Well, I've been learning a few things lately and maybe gotten a little carried away with using the photomerge capabilities. Since then, I've been finding photos from my travels that I never thought I would be able to stitch together. Now that I know....I've been going crazy! So here are a few of my first photomerging projects:

The Gros Ventre Range in Wyoming. Photo was taken from near the top of Battle Mountain along the Hoback River. University of Michigan Camp Davis (2007)

The Nopah Range in southern Nevada (California?). I forget exactly where the photo was taken, but I was on a Geology field trip with the University of Michigan Geology Department (2007)

Cliffs of Moher along the west coast of Ireland, County Clare. Taken during my family's trip to Ireland earlier this year (2011)

My sister with the Fernsehturm, Rotes Rathaus, and Alexanderplatz behind her. Taken from the top of the Berlinerdom. (2011)
