    Landscape Panoramas

    This is one I did back in 2008 with 8 photos taken with a Minolta Dimage Z20. Stuck together using Autostitch (which I can thoroughly recommend to those starting out as it is a freebie) the original size is approx 12400 x 2000.

    Hornet vs Wasp. When Goliath won over David.

    This is the best of a sequence of about a dozen shots I took this morning. There are a few trees with over-ripe fruit near where I live and they are attracting insects of all kinds. I was stalking a hornet when it suddenly attacked a wasp and flew off with it onto a branch. This was a...
