We just spent a week in Tasmania celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. Luckily, my new lens (Nikon 18-200VR) arrived the day we left, so I swung past Ted's cameras on the way to the boat.... Still sorting through the shots, but here are the panoramas.

Russell Falls, Mount Field NP



Mount Wellington, Hobart


Cradle Mountain NP


Marakoopa Cave, Mole Creek.

Had a fabulous time. Spent waaay too much...


Cheers

Did you buy it duty free before going overseas to Tasmania ?

They look nice


25 years, Margo and I have our 25th on the 13th of this month Very Happy

I keep looking for the 'like' button - that's what too much facebook does to you. Congratulations to you both on a significant (and sadly these days all too infrequent) milestone! We haven't even had our 20th yet!

Grant - what did you use for the panoramas? Or are Nikon SLRs now coming out with panorama software? Mine doesn't, something I miss from my previous Olympus compact which had a great pano function.

Hi Greg - thanks. I'm extremely lucky to have a great partner... staying with her for 25 years has been easy. I'm not sure what she gets out of it, though...

Lately I'm using Photoshop's Photomerge function for the Panos - I used to use Canon's Photostitch software (even with Nikon images...) and before that a mind-numbingly complicated open-source utility called PanoTools which could even stitch multiple rings to make a spherical VR image, if you didn't mind tying a Mac up for a day or two while it processed the files...

Cheers

Grant

Would you believe I've just been briefed on a book cover for a novel set in Tasmania. The publisher has suggested we look for some shots taken from the top of Mount Wellington. (!!)

I said I'll see what I can do.... could be expensive.


Cheers
