New Panoramic Gallery

Spring Evening on Lake Memphremagog

One of the areas of photography that has always drawn my attention is panoramic images. I love to look at them, and I love even more to create them. There’s something particularly amazing about creating an image that more fully expresses the scale and scope of a vista or view than a traditional photograph. This history of panoramic photography is pretty cool stuff, but these days, in the digital darkroom, the opportunities are wide open. 

In that spirit, I’ve finally put together a gallery with some of my favorites from various places, although most notable are my Lake Memphremagog images, because we live right here. The link below will whisk you away to my gallery:

Panoramic Art

All images are available as prints in lots of sizes. As with most panoramic photos, the bigger the better, of course!

I’d love to hear your thoughts, what you’d like to see and whatever strikes your fancy about panoramic photos.

Thanks and best,

Photo of the Day 11/28/10 - Eyes on the Blue Horizon

It’s been a while… hello, Photo of the Day.

This particular shot is the result of a puppy waking me up about 5 a.m. during our usually Thanksgiving stay in Glover. Normally, I’d roll over and go back to sleep, like any right-minded human, but for some reason, I got up. I assume this is the reason. Standing in the 8-degree morning air—in my flannel pajamas, which provided only minimal protection, I might add—freezing up nicely, I tripod-mounted the camera to avoid my shivering shakes and tried to capture the amazing pre-sunrise horizon line in this panoramic. The sunrise itself wasn’t quite so spectacular, but this was well worth the cold wake-up call.

This is a 2:1 ratio panorama, available on my Smugmug account in various sizes.

Lake Willoughby in Westmore, Vermont.

Driving through on my way back from Crawford Notch, I thought I'd see if I could catch the last rays of the day over the lake. What do you think?
