My New Zealand and Weta trip... (warning, large pictures!)

[lcummins]

Just to get you started, here are three panoramic pictures I created from pictures I took while in New Zealand! The first two are the view from my hotel balcony (one overcast, the other in sun but the tone varies across the picture, each made from 9 pictures) of the central business district of Wellington. The third one (made up of 6 pictures) is the view of the city from atop Mt. Vic, almost directly above my hotel!

Also, if you have Microsoft Silverlight 2 add-in installed for your web browser, there are links to very high resolution images of the same pictures, which you can zoom into and out of, and pan around in, all very smoothly with virtually no loss of detail!!! Try it out, it is amazing!!!
