Although I’ve had my digital camera for a while now (since the first public meeting in Köln/Germany) I’ve only just taken the time to take a few shots turning around in a circle, to stitch together on the computer to put a nice panoramic shot together.

My Canon Digital Ixus 500 camera has a nice panoramic mode that shows you half of the last picture taken on its display, to take a near perfect shot of the next section in view. As this was the first time that I played with this function, I didn’t put much effort into taking the shots, however am pleased enough with the outcome that tomorrow I’ll take additional shots of my town I used a shareware app on the Mac (DoubleTake) that I gladly registered for, that took care of the hard work of stitching the photos together.

Here is the final shot I took today (resized ofcourse) of the side of my town:

Tomorrow I’ll take one from the front of the town and hope the sun will shine like it did today. The obligatory shot of our lake will also be made later in the week

Update

Here is a panoramic shot of the front of the town. What was just the tip of the church in the side photo is now full in view in this shot.
