playing around with Panorama shots

[evo]

What do you all think?

This is the same doug fir that's in my avatar, it was all hand held while balancing on the rock face. Wish I had more of the rocks for the lower left, next family trip I hope to get more shots.

Very cool, Jesse, I didn't realize that was a Doug-fir at all. I downgraded so don't panorama anymore, but trees and especially the landscape here in the northwest definitely lends itself to panoramapanorama

Nice shot, that tree is spectacular, for posting it

I will post some more shots. The root is nearly a long as the tree is tall. Next time I go there I will have to find an old timer local to fill me in on the history.

Here is another shot from the other side, I had to jump to a small rock in the lake to get this shot. These are unedited.

And here is part of the root, this goes about another 6 ft outside the frame, and then sinks in to a crack in the rock.

This is another Doug Fir here on my island, it is on a bluff facing the Straight of Juan De Fuca... We have a few wind battered trees here, a friend of mine is trying to the term "Guardian Trees" for the sententials like these.

Great Pics! Reminds me of the wind swept white pines in Northern Ontario. The panoramic really gives the tree it's full due!
