Archivo: MtHoodViewFromAboveCrop Edit1

Descripción: This is a panorama centered on the crater of Mt Hood in Oregon, showing the peak, sides, crazy rock formations, rocks fallen onto snow, the origins of rivers, volcanic activity, crevasses, the bergschrund on Coalman Glacier which has killed a few people, climbers, evidence of very risky snowboarding, and other interesting bits. North is left, camera elevation is more or less 4100 meters, compare to the summit which is 3429 meters. Panorama built out of 29 photos which were taken by airplane on 12 July 2009 around 17:45. I work for the company which does this in Portland and decided to build this image while waiting for some computations to finish. The 29 photos were picked out of about 10000 (yeah... pretty much the whole south side was photographed several times). Pre-crop panorama shows the top of the Palmer glacier with skiers all over it. Permission was given to put the image here. Again, photos not taken by me (taken automatically by a rig consisting of four computer controlled cameras, mind you). I did raw conversion with Raw Therapee and panorama assembly with Hugin. All manual, yay! Since the cameras move during photography and the mountain is by definition not flat, there is parallax and thus this image is not seamless. I've tried my hardest to hide errors but some parts of the image mismatch by as much as 425 pixels (though average is 16). I don't know how high the plane flew, but I do know that we've skimped on photographing our local mountain before because the peak isn't much lower than the plane's altitude (since the plane takes pictures moving, panoramas turn out the best when taken as far away from ground as possible). Missing from EXIF: Photos taken with ISO 800, 1/8000 s, f/5. 85 mm lens. Due to noise, I half sized images before loading into Hugin and less then half sized the 40 MB output for upload. If you're a prospective climber, avert your eyes. It's more fun when you don't know, believe me!
