Africa Pano

Africa Pano · 05:54 AM

Indeed, my first photo on this forum and a big one at that ;-)
I'm planning to have this printed at 120 cm long; should be feasable as the original is about 7000x1900 pixels. One thing is holding me back at the moment..... the custom frame I have in mind will cost me a whopping € 250!

So if I shouldn't do it due to the image quality..... please tell me so

Wow this is amazing. Truely a awesome shot. This is worthwhile to frame it all up. It would be grandeous!

Thanks for sharing

WOW! great pano. how many images??

Mousehill · 11-26-2006, 06:44 AM

It's a 3 image original, the 3rd image was located on the right and I used about 40% of it.

Mike,
That is phenominal. It will make a super large print, and worth every euro the frame costs.

Cheers

Hi Mike!

What a first post! Cheetahs are my favorite cat and these are awesome.

Wait a minute, it's full of noise - a new kind - SPOTS! Oh my word! This is horrible image quality and how could you possibly think of printing it?

Seriously, this is a picture I'd gladly have above my fireplace. If you ever think of selling prints let me know!

Scott Rylance · 11-26-2006, 03:42 PM

Mike, that's not fair with a first post like that!

I would be very proud to have that up on my wall...so that's a yes from me.
Cheers.

GregNS · 11-26-2006, 06:29 PM

Mike that is a truly fantastic photo/pano/piece of art!
I love it.

vievetrick · 11-26-2006, 06:40 PM

Wish I could say something more but those above have done it. Great 1st picture post. I can't remeber if you mentioned at Dp but what did you use to stich the pictures. Great job

mingdie · 11-26-2006, 07:36 PM

Great photo Mike. I would not mind that on my wall and I think for you it will mean a lot more. For me a photo taken by myself gives me a lot more then others. I can feel the smell, hear the sounds and remember the feelings from the moment.

Cheers

Eddie

Nice shot....would love to do a Pano one of these days

Lance B · 11-26-2006, 11:10 PM

Absolutely stunning photo, Mike.

I would have no hesitation in printing it and putting it on my wall if I were you and I'd be bloody proud of it!!

I can't believe you are hesitant in doing it.

I must say though, the price of E250 is expensive compared to here. I had a beautiful wooden frame and border custom made for I think AU$200, which is about E120.
