I'm uploading this before setting off to Wigan for a game we have to win to stand any chance of staying in the Premier League. Even then it might not be enough.

 

This is the same panorama as yesterday, just cropped tighter. Again we see the exterior of the Boleyn Ground, better known as Upton Park, the home of West Ham United FC.

 

When full it holds 35,303 although if the club is relegated from the Premier League today or next weekend (which now seems likely) it is unlikely to reach that capacity very often. This has been the club's home since 1904, but in August 2014 the plan is to relocate to the London 2012 Olympic Stadium ending 110 years of history.

 

This panorama is made up of 3 handheld landscape orientation shots stitched together with PT Gui.

I'm into more gritty and depressing things as well as being a WHU season ticket holder. So, as an Oasis fan as well, I'm hoping the Premier League does not 'slide away' from us

Palace supporters arriving at Selhurst Park for the Crystal Palace v West Ham Premier League match, 01 January 2022.

Here is another shot from the nPower Championship playoff semi final second leg between West Ham and Cardiff City. It is the Boleyn Ground, better known to many as Upton Park taken from my seat AA167. This was taken just before the start of the second half, waiting for the West Ham team to emerge having built a 2-0 lead in the first half.

 

This one is a panorama of 7 shots in portrait orientation, stitched together using PTGui. Bearing in mind the fact that people move it came out remarkably well. There is one partial head that I need to work on, but other than that I think most people remained complete after the stitching process.

 

At the far left we see the Trevor Brooking stand and at the far right the Bobby Moore stand. The smaller stand opposite is the East stand, known as the 'Chicken Run' due to the construction of it's old predecessor.

Here is a panorama of the view I had for the nPower Championship Playoff Final at Wembley Stadium between West Ham and Blackpool.

 

Our seats were on the south side of the lower tier, only one block from the Blackpool fans and opposite the tunnel and royal box. Block 123 Row 13 Seats 27 & 28. This was made up of 10 shots in portrait orientation, stitched together with PTGui.

The D78 stock has recently been refurbished with CCTV and electronic destination displays but is due to be replaced by new S Stock by 2016. The District Line will become the last line to have new stock due to the relatively recent build date of the old stock and it's recent rebuild.

Here is a panorama of the Boleyn Ground, better known as Upton Park, the home of West Ham United FC.

 

I took my son Henry on a stadium tour, and this is the view from the directors box in the front row of the upper tier of the West Stand. To our left we see the Trevor Brooking stand (then called the Centenary stand) and to our right the Bobby Moore stand. The smaller stand opposite is the East stand, known as the 'Chicken Run' due to the construction of it's old predecessor. The roof advertising on the Chicken Run is the then club sponsor, the now defunct XL Holidays.

 

When full it holds 35,303 although if the club is relegated from the Premier League in the next week or so it is unlikely to reach that capacity very often. This has been the club's home since 1904, but in August 2014 the plan is to relocate to the London 2012 Olympic Stadium ending 110 years of history.

 

This panorama is made up of 10 handheld portrait orientation shots stitched together with PT Gui. A little photoshop work was then required to repair some stitching, balance out the shadows and sunlight, and also to remove a groundsman from the pitch.

I've just booked my tickets for the playoff final at Wembley, hoping that West Ham can make it back to the Premier League. To celebrate here is a shot of the Boleyn Ground, better known to many as Upton Park.

 

This was taken before the last home match, at home against Hull City. I arrived fairly early and made my way up to the uppermost seat at the far North end of the West (Alpari) stand. Then I walked the length of the stadium to the far South West seat to take this shot. At the far left end we see the Trevor Brooking stand and at the far right the lower tier of the Bobby Moore stand. The smaller stand opposite is the East stand, known as the 'Chicken Run' due to the construction of it's old predecessor.

 

PowerShot G10 ~ 6mm ~ 1/50 ~ f8 ~ ISO200 ~ Av mode.

A final shot from before the West Ham match at home against Hull City. Once again this is the Boleyn Ground, better known to many as Upton Park. As an aside it's also 32 years ago today that West Ham last won the F.A. Cup.

 

Having taken the two single frame shots from the far corners this was a panorama of 7 portrait orientated shots stitched together. Not quite in the centre of the stand, it is taken from my seat (AA167) in the Alpari stand. It is the view I have for every home game.

 

It would look better (or at least more atmospheric) full of people but stitching crowds is frought with it's own problems. I do have a couple coming up taken at Monday's game with Cardiff though.

 

At the far left we see the Trevor Brooking stand and at the far right the Bobby Moore stand. The smaller stand opposite is the East stand, known as the 'Chicken Run' due to the construction of it's old predecessor.
