The subjects which almost demand a panorama approach I find most interesting. The chained statue - less so for my eye. This was my problem during the 5 years I worked with the xpan and the 12 years that I occasionally took the 12x20 out for a drive. I rarely seemed to find myself near a subject which "demanded" a panorama view. So many of my negatives appeared to be forced, "tricky" compositions. Of course, now that I have sold both, and you present these, and folks point us to the new range of panorama cameras, I begin to see panoramas all around me. ;~) Regards, George Lottermoser george@imagist.com On Feb 5, 2007, at 7:35 PM, Philip Forrest wrote: > The latest 6x12 images.
