One of two pans of Horseshoe Bend, a lovely incised meander near Page, Arizona (just southeast of Glen Canyon Dam). Erosion by the Colorado River cut down through the layers of sedimentary rock and created the deep gorge (approx. 1000 feet deep here). The river meander, though, formed by the same processes that for...

An Easter Egg hunt on my front porch. There are three dozen eggs 'hidden', as well as two Easter bunnies, two Mainzelmännchen, one Eeyore, one Rubber Duckie, and if you look really closely you'll find the reflection of the photographer pointing to one of the hidden eggs. Happy Easter and Happy Hunting!!! [Permi...

The Key to the city is the symbol of Bremen. There should be at least three in this picture - could you find them? :-) One snapshot I already added. Am Marktplatz stehen (von links) neben dem Bankhaus und dem Eingang zur Bötcherstraße der Schütting, einige Giebelhäuser und das Bremer Rathaus; rechts ist noch di...

Originally intended to be about twice as wide, my Gigapan Beta unit contracted the deadly Whirling Dervish/Spiral of Death disease upon completing column number 38. (Fear not, it's fixed now - a relatively low tech solution, I simply "unwound" the robot. Aaahh, the joys of Beta testing!) Nonetheless, the resulting...

This is my first attempt at taking a macropanorama with multiple focal planes. I used the "Last Panorama" function on the GigaPan unit to retake the same field, but only after selecting another focal plane. I then used Helicon Focus software to render each frame, then stitched the panorama from the rendered frames wi...

A photo for the virtual Easter egg hunt taken in the new park behind my house. The rocks and tree branches are part of the park's landscaping. Some construction in still in progress where the orange webbed fences are located. Approximately 30 eggs are hidden in the photo. The winds picked up while taking this panorama ...

Rock City is a local park near Minneapolis, Kansas where dozens of meter-scale concretions of Dakota Sandstone have remained resistant to weathering. Berti and Edi (the rock gnomes) had a field day! See if you can find and snapshot them in all of their hiding places.

How many cacti can you find in this GigaPan? (Species, if not individual cactus plants.) Points for the most original cactus and caption. Perhaps a biologist could actually use this for some sort of genuine scientific cactus count? Next, find the hikers. And maybe someone lucky will find the jackrabbit...
