Panorama-rama
I had some fun at Road America this weekend with my dad, not only seeing some great racing but also figuring out a slew of features on my camera. Example: I had no idea that my camera had a burst mode (lots of pictures really quickly). I ended up taking 786 pictures over two days, which is pretty easy when you can take 15 pictures in less than two seconds.
Anywho, I took a bunch of pictures at a few different locations in the track with the thought of stitching them together in GIMP and creating some panorama shots. It turns out there’s a program that does that for you automatically, and it’s stupid simple to use. The following pictures were done with Autostitch. Had I know I could have gotten such good results, I probably would have taken a lot more (and perhaps tried a little harder regarding the actual shots).

Heh, note the guy in the above picture that appears twice.

Very cool, baby! Be sure to show your father! It’ll make him go ga-ga!
