Thanks for the compliment but you really need to see Mikol's image in
the flesh when printed about 8x5 feet. The image is over 500MB.

These images are an assortment of different crops of my Live Oak Allee image.
I was going to ask for preferences. But that was before my wife discovered
what the aspect ratio looks like of a 2x5 foot print. She it totally aspect
ratio challenged. Doesn't understand it, can't visualize it.
I'd been telling her for a couple of weeks that I was going to build a large panorama from the
many images I'd taken at Live Oak Allee. Turns out she really had no idea that a panoramic
photo is very wide but not very high. She freaked out when she realized that a 2x5 foot photo
really is very wide and doesn't look anything like the 24x36" print that's already there.
She was also insisting the any "proper" picture must have a frame and be covered
with glass.
We've just returned from the bone doctor's office where one of the docs is an avid
photographer and his work is displayed all over the office area.
<http://www.mikolnaturephotos.com/#!/index> I showed her that not one of the
photos on display has a frame (they're all mounted on aluminum plates) and certainly
no glass. I think I've won on the frame and glass but still have to do work on a
proper pano.
She's agreed that the 48x30 is OK... looks more like a normal photo to her
because it *not* a pano. I don't much care for the 48x30 since it has too much
sky. But that may be where I have to go if I'm going to hang it in the dining
room. Thoughts? Don't worry, I won't tell her what *you* said. :-)
This is my favorite from Mikol.

It's the "Angel Oak" on John's Island near Charlie's territory. I've never
seen it other than in photos. I'll have to go shoot it one of these days. It's hanging
on the wall in the bone doc's offices. It's printed about 7-8 feet wide and maybe 5 feet
high. It's done in several pieces arranged such the the breaks between the pieces make
it look like you're viewing it through a window with large panes of glass... a clever way
to reduce the cost of such a large print.
