Late-night fun

So last night while I was awake from being a bit sick I came across Hugin. Hugin is a program that stitches together multiple images into one to make a panorama. So I downloaded it and, having no real idea how to use it as I didn't care to read the documentation at the time, proceeded to have some fun. I dived into my iPhoto collection and pulled out a few photos to play around with. My ignorant fun resulted in varying degrees of success, shown here:



The first set of images I came across was from our stop in Salt Lake city during last spring's band tour. Seen here are the Mormon Temple and the Mormon Tabernacle (the domed structure). This image was created from three images. The left two seemed to merge in quite well while the ones on the right had more trouble. My guess is I moved too much between the left two photos and the right one. Nonetheless it creates an impressive view, I just wish it wasn't cursed ground we are looking at.



Here's a couple photos I stitched together of the Brandonburg Gate in Berlin. This is from my family trip in 2003. This one came together quite well despite the odd angle at the top.



Another one from the family trip to Germany, this time where the Olympics were held. This one came out quite nicely.



Yet another one from the Germany trip, some random wall with me on the right. Although the wall is kinda neat, putting the two photos together didn't go so well. The horizontals are all warped, the two photos have too much of a difference in grain and lighting and what the heck is going on with the bottom? This what happens when someone like me gets ahold of something he has no idea how to use.



These photos came from my Petal Pushers trip to work on rose parade floats a couple of years ago. If you ever get the chance to be a Petal Pusher, do it. It's a great expirence. This one turned out quite nice.
