Panorama: Joshua Tree National Park



"I never tried to revolutionize photography; I just do what I do and keep my fingers crossed that people will like it."
-David Bailey


Two panoramas taken at Joshua Tree National Park. Both are early morning shots, just after sunrise. Gotta love that warm, golden-hued early morning low-angled streaming light! Click on the photos below for a more intimate view. Once the larger version is opened after clicking, one can increase the magnification of it by holding down the Ctrl key (Windows) and the Cmd the key on a Mac, while scrolling up and down with your mouse wheel. This works in the Firefox browser. Not sure if other browsers support this function. Then one can use the browser scroll bars to move around within the photos.

I'm not liking how Google Blogger renders panos. It downscales the original, so when one goes to view the larger version, it renders to only fit within the browser window. Magnifying it tends to make the photo somewhat fuzzy. *Sigh*. One can't complain too much when the service provided is free.



Series of five shots stitched together.


Shot a little later in the morning. The light is not quite as warm as in the first pano, as the sun is already higher in the sky and taking on more blue. Stitched from a series of seven photos.
