If you stare at this picture long enough a giraffe will come into focus. It's quite an amazing optical illusion.

My Street. The land cruiser in the drive belongs to a friend.


Maxy

A friend rescued her in Sydney. Her mum was electrocuted, and when the body fell after three days he discovered this tiny form clinging to the body. Maxy is in care now and is thriving.

All the better to attract birdies!

I can see my usual parking spot from here ... although I don't remember it being on a corner. ;P

I think Scott needs to use the giraffe image as an avatar.

THere is a curve but the photos exagerate it.

You may have achieved a better result with less perspective distortion using a longer focal length lens.

It looks to me like you used Autostitch to merge 6 photographs. If some of your subject matter is relatively close, then for a 180 degree panorama, I've found that you need to shoot using a focal length that equates to a standard 50mm on a 35mm camera. This works out to between 10 and 12 photographs for the 180 degree coverage.

Ooh, that street looks so ... Australian.
There just aren't any places that look like that over here - so much space ! No-one double-parked on the street ! No-one parked on the street at all !

Maxy may be favorite ever!

Hee. Your street reminds me of some of the more pricey suburbs out here.
