Description The Middle St. Vrain Creek in Colorado during the early morning. The sun was already up but I had great shading from the mountain ridge just on the other side of the creek.

There was some difficulty with this image... I did not have an ND filter at this time, so I had to pull out every trick I could think of to get the water to blur; smallest aperture, ISO 100, and a dozen tries to narrow down the exact shutter speed... and I was standing in the river to get the shot!

This image is stitched together from 5 photos.

Nice!

My brother-in-law has a program on his laptop that can assimilate a bunch of pics into a full 360o pan.

You should try it out! You can use handheld shots, but I really recommend a tripod!

I got a "panorama creator" with my Panasonic camera, but I didn't try it out. The "Photomerge" feature in Photoshop CS3 is really easy to use, you just choose the photos and crop. It handles all the guesswork.

You're so dedicated You did a very good job in my opinion. The water looks great and you did a good job stitching the photos together

Thank you very much! I have never felt too good about my landscapes and never attempted photo stitching, but the responses on these first few are encouraging!

Thank you for your support!
