Pano-palooza #3 – The Italian Job

We’re still working on our last few photo albums from Italy – our little medical emergency in Spain was an annoying detour that threw us off our game a bit – and we still have some final thoughts and impressions to share about the eight weeks we spent eating and drinking our way through bell’Italia. In the meantime, I thought I’d share the latest batch of panoramic photos I stitched together.

Ok, so I went a little crazy with the panorama photos in Italy, but we were there for almost two months, and it’s a beautiful country, so why not? As usual, you can click on the thumbnails below to see the full-res images. Hope you enjoy them!

One final aside: I posted an update to my recently-renamed appendectomy story (Nobody Expects the Spanish Appendectomy!, new title courtesy of my oh-so punny wife [I’m just mad I didn’t think of it first!]). The update didn’t go out in the RSS feed for some reason, so I thought I’d mention it here. The update includes a cute story written by Ramon Díaz, one of the Spanish gentleman with whom I shared a hospital room in Huelva. Scroll to the bottom of the blog entry (just above the comments) to read his story.

The panoramas look great Frayzhe! It looks like you perfected your stitching skills in Spain. :-P

Nice! These look fantastic on my 30" monitor at work, esp the Lake Como ones. Wow.

The graffiti one is really good too. Good call on doing that one panoramic.
