Large parts of the black forest were damaged by Hurricane
Lothar on December 26th, 1999. This image was photographed a couple of
weeks later. The panorama is stitched from three full frame fisheye
images (15mm Sigma lens/ Olympus OM1) in landscape orientation. The camera
was handheld, no tripod was used.
There are three versions of this Panorama available:
Quicktime cylindrical format, which is shown if Quicktime
is detected. This is a rather large image with 5000 pixels width and 550kByte
file size.
The same panorama automatically displayed in PTViewer, if
no Quicktime is available on your computer. To test this Java-viewer, you
can force its use by clicking here. Netscape
browsers (version 4.x) usually can not diplay this version due to memory
shortage.
