St. Fidelis church, better known as the Cathedral of the Plains, is located in Victoria, Kansas. It is one of a number of large Catholic churches erected by the Volga Germans who emigrated to the area around Hays, Kansas in the late Eighteenth and early Nineteenth centuries.
Once again I've got vignetting and missed stitches because of insufficient overlap. This image was also challenging to capture because I had to incline the robot in order to capture the top of the steeple, thus the poor leveling of the left side of the image, for instance.

I'm glad you're enjoying them Mr. Skulls. I think one of the reasons they are as you describe is because of the 12x zoom on the Canon S5 IS that I'm shooting with. I'm looking forward to travelling a little next week with hopes of getting some Gigapans in the southwest USA. Stay tuned...

It seems most of your pans come out very crisp and clear and are fun to explore. You can tell that you take your time and pride in your pans to produce high quality photos. Great work author!!
