What the heck is a vertorama?
What’s that you say? This photo has been up on Flickr for quite some time without a link to a before and after comparison? Sheesh, I’m lazy. ;)
Anyway, this photo is technically referred to as a vertorama. It basically means that it’s composed of multiple stitched photos in a vertical format as opposed to a (more traditional) horizontal panoramic format. This particular image is composed of 6 HDR photos. The 6 (processed) HDR photos were stitched together using Autopano Giga, a very powerful piece of software that makes pano work very easy.
If you are curious about the HDR Panorama process, I’ve created a little tutorial that explains it in greater detail.
Ehem... And the link to the before and after is up ;)
Enjoy!

Description of the photo, from the book :
"A rapport with people has been evident in Mary Ellen's work from the very beginning. She does not feel she has to know people to photograph them. Using her camera as a tool of exploration, she learns about them and their lives. She will even approach strangers, as the photograph of Valli (sic) testifies.
She had just started to photograph when she went to Europe in 1965. It was two years before pictures of flower children with gypsy clothes, beads and rings would become commonplace. Mary Ellen was sitting in a small restaurant in Positano, Southern Italy, when she saw a woman wearing an incredible assortment of necklaces and rings, dressed in a fashion that defied current fashion. It was all fantasy, from the tattoos on her head to the single flower she was holding.
Mary Ellen knew she had to have a picture of that strange aura of innocence mingled with sadness. She approached the woman gently, asked if she might photograph her, and heard her name - Valli. They communicated easily ; Valli invited her to visit.
A couple of days later they met and walked together up into the hills where Valli lived. She introduced Mary Ellen to her little fox and goats and showed her around her small, sad shack.
Throughout the afternoon, Mary Ellen took photographs, and when evening came she knew that on many rolls of black-and-white film, plus a few of color, she had an exciting series of pictures.
She returned to the United States a few weeks later. Before going home to New York, she stopped in Chicago to visit a friend. Anxious to see what she had captured, she put the black-and-white film in a developing tank, and then went out for an hour. When she came back , she had lost most of that afternoon in Italy.
Another friend had come into the apartment, seen the tank, and in passing, opened it. All the film was wrecked. The photograph of Valli at the far left is the best survivor of the color take, To this day, the memory of that loss clouds Mary Ellen's face when she talks about it. "There are no words you can say when something like that happens. You feel so badly for your lost pictures, those that die."
I have nothing interesting to post, the well is dry! I have stumbled on these.
I wanted to shoot some 'country' but it's snow storming again. My daughter was pissed
that I'm playing Rascal Flatts(which is not even too country) over and over... the songs are sticking in her head!
Not all are pretty during winter.
Remnants of Fall are trashed on dirty ice.
I should have moved the ones that almost shaped like a heart to add cheesiness. I like cheesy stuffs. It sells! A lot of people got rich from being cheesy.
Comment, leave notes, put tag or fav at your own risk.
Have a great day to all!

... into Johann Sebastian Bach's life. Window of the Bachhaus' modern part in Eisenach (Thuringia, Germany), where Bach was born.
At the big, lighted column on the left side you can learn about different parts of Bach's work (cantatas, masses, preludes & fugues, works for choir...) and use ipods to listen to examples. The modern addition to the historic building was highly controversal, but I like it.

For Steam Sunday here's another from my day out in the cranberry bogs of South Carver.
Like many people of a certain age who grew up in Eastern Massachusetts or Rhode Island a visit to this place was a right of passage, particularly during the holiday season. Some of my earliest childhood memories are of cold nights, warm wooden coaches, and twinkling lights beneath stars, and along the bogs of cranberry country. Edaville Railroad was a special place for generations, and it had been more than 35 years since I last visited. Named for its founder, Ellis D. Atwood, who did so much to save the unique two foot gauge equipment, Edaville was later purchased by Nelson Blount of Steamtown fame after Mr. Atwood's tragic death. When Blount also died young in an accident their spirit and dream lived up through successive owners until finally foundering in the early 1990s. Despite most of the classic two foot gauge equipment being repatriated to Maine and the original five and a half mile long loop around Atwood Reservoir being cut back to only two miles Edaville has survived.
For the first time in 35 or more years I returned thanks to the suggestion of a friend for a fun little photo charter featuring two steam locomotives, sponsored by the railroad and coordinated by Bill Willis of Precious Escapes Photography (make sure to give him a like or follow if you don't already). The star of the show was Edaville #3, an 0-4-4T Forney type locomotive built by Vulcan Locomotive works in 1913 for Maine's Monson Railroad. It ran on the six mile long pike from Monson Junction to its namesake town until the railroad's demise in 1943, the last common carrier 2 ft gauge railroad in operation in the US. Following the road's abandonment, #3 operated at the original Edaville Railroad for nearly 50 years, and was part of the original collection of equipment that migrated to the then new Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad and Museum in Portland following Edaville Railroad's closure. #3 has been a frequent visitor to other 2 ft gauge recreational railroads in New England when not in Portland and returned to the reestablished Edaville Railroad a few years ago where it continues to operate.

Here she is leading a four car freight consisting of three flat cars around the outer end of the shortened loop, and the original five mile long loop once came in just out of frame to the left. For a small locomotive weighing in at about only 17 tons, she sure puts on quite a good show! The cars (three of them at least) recently arrived from South Africa where they once operated on the now closed Avontuur Railway, which at 177 miles was the longest two foot gauge railway ever built. If anyone has more history of these specific cars I'd love to learn more about them.

Caution: (the following description contains NO sarcasm. read at your own risk.)
Venice is my favorite place to go on a photo walk. No matter where you go, there is always something unique and beautiful to see. Being such a small & compacted place makes it ideal for a day trip too. However, if you plan on doing some photography, make sure to stay a little longer and observe the city during different times of day. You’ll be surprised how much the lighting conditions will change, sometimes hour by hour.
Here you see the light of the late afternoon. A sun, hung low in the sky, not quite casting golden tones, but still casting long sharp shadows and highlights. It’s a great time of day to capture vivid colors, contrast, & dramatic lighting.
Check out some other HDR Photos from Venice.
