Description Took me forever to stitch this one, for some really odd reason Photoshop just doesn't like it. Had to go back to Hugin to stitch it properly.

3 photos, 3 exposures each, colours done in Lightroom, tonemapped with Photomatix, and stitched with Hugin, finally fine-tuned in Photoshop CS3. Thanks for looking!

Somehow it reminds me of game graphics - really nice ones~
I guess it would be pretty neat if someone ever made a game with Heidelberg in it... xD

Okay. n.n
I was wondering, because I haven't seen Heidelberg from this view.
