Mergellina

I believe it was July when I decided one morning to take my cheap tripod, and go haveing some photo fun at the first rays of light....

That morning I took several shots of boats, ships, seagulls BIF.. and tried my hand (and the tripod) to a Pano... it has been one of my favorite shots ever since!

It's a huge pano made of 5 shots (or maybe six) taken with the AF-D 50mm f1/1.4 and composed togheter BY HAND in GIMP... FAR MORE DIFFICULT than I tought it would have been

I needed the whole morning (5 or 6 hours!) just to align them correctly... luckily the AF-D 50 mm f1/1.4 has not that much distortion to correct^_^

This panorama is high 2532 pixel... so in the original there's far more detail than in this scaled down version^_^
