Forgotten Mars

That's a real beauty, it must set the standard for an 8" image.

First and Last

Posted By Tim Taylor

Here's another version Walt. Not nearly as nice as Alan's one and I chopped off the top and bottom as they were so awful. The reason for posting it up is that it was done almost automatically by some software called PTGui which you can get for a 30 day free trial online. I've seen it used recently to create a 170 piece mosaic of the mooon which was pretty amazing. This was my first go at using it and obviously with two curving halves that don't match very well it was a tough one to try it out on.

Regards, Tim

Wow, if that's an example of your work when you're out of practice, I'd love to see a shot when you're on top form. Great shot. smile
