More Fun Making Panoramas: Alice’s Desk

Yesterday I posted a fun”how-to” on creating panoramic images with your cell phone (or regular digital) camera. Last night I decided to try it myself, and using the great utility that came with my Canon Camera (the SD500), I was able to shoot three pics of my desk (shown here) and then stich them together in seconds. It’s not perfect, but for a first try, I was amazed at how the software lined everything up.

For a larger image: Click Here And the weird round thing on the right is a space heater- SF gets cold when the fog rolls in! You can also zoom in and read my desktop and check out my new Samsung 243T flat panel monitor I wrote about here.

You have to try this - it’s really fun. Send me a pic of your desk and we can post them here.

    I couldn’t get very good results with photostitching I think because my room is so small that I couldn’t get far enough back to get good perspective or angles. Anyway, my desk really needs a good spring cleaning…

    You can see it here if you’re interested: http://home.comcast.net/~gotamd/Images/desk.jpg

    I like the ambiance that the shaver adds (it’s under my monitor near the memory card reader toward the right).

    Thanks for the linky! I’m loving it enough that it may go on to replace my Desktop Sidebar, especially if I can get a RSS widget to my liking.
