> Hello Luggers,
> I am back from Bali and here are a few pictures taken during our time
> there. The internet connections were very slow
> and expensive so I didn't try to upload any photos while we were
> there. The panos were taken mostly with the M8 - although
> there is one 10 panel pano with Esther's G9 - the stitch program on
> the G9 is very handy. The panos were taken using the Novoflex
> pano head which helps takes the guess work out of matching the panels
> and photoshop CS 2 did the rest.

> 
> This rice farmer made more money from posing for tourists than
> harvesting rice, I think.
> He belongs to the National Geographic red shirt school of photography.

> And here is a 10 panel pano of the tegallallang terraces taken with
> Esther's G9. I panned from
> right to left and didn't realize there would be the rice farmer and a
> Japanese tourist with
> a Leica Digilux in the last left panel. On my 24" I Mac this is a
> really impressive image and would print out to
> perhaps 8 feet long by about two feet wide. I think I need to visit
> the Epson demo store and try it on the 3800.
