I added a section to this site that contains some of the panoramas I have shot, mostly multiple images stitched together, but a few single frames that just have a panoramic view. There's a pretty even mix between urban views - Tokyo, Shanghai, Hong Kong and more - and more natural landscapes - The Rockies, Mt. Fuji, temples, train stations, etc.
Just click on either of the images or captions above to be taken to the full collection.
A hike along the Continental Divide.
This route starts at Milner Pass on the Continental Divide. It climbs from about 10,500 ft. MSL to well above the tree line, towards the summit of Mt. Ida, at 12,280 ft.
Starting point - Poudre Lake at dawn.

Storing up for the winter?

Saturn [at the apex], Spica [lower left], and Mars [lower right] form a nice equilateral triangle in the sky just after sunset.
Spica, 260 light years from Earth, is mis-classified as a "blue giant" - but it is actually a pair of stars so close together that they cannot be resolved through a telescope.
The primary star has more than 10 times the mass of the sun and 7 times its radius. It rotates rapidly, and varies in brightness over about a four-hour period due to expansion and contraction of its surface. The secondary member of the Spica system is smaller than the primary, with about 7 times the mass of the Sun and 3.6 times the Sun's radius. Seen as a single star, Spica is brightest star in the constellation Virgo and the 15th brightest star in the nighttime sky.

The Gooseneck is a sharp bend in the Colorado River about 13 miles west southwest of Moab, Utah. At Dead Horse Point State Park, there is a fine view of the surrounding terrain from the mesa above, and closer views of the Gooseneck are afforded from the White Rim Road and Schafer Road down in the canyons carved by the River.
