Sweden
I travelled to Sweden for a few days to attend a Rock’n'Roll Dance Camp/Workshop. We didn’t see much of Sweden, as the CURnR team members were there primarily to receive world-class training, but the 90 minute drive to Stockholm airport provided some beautiful scenery. Our trainers, Wim & Griet from Belgium, showed why they were at the top of the World Championship...

Read MoreCosta Rica – Panoramas
I spent a few hours over Easter putting together some of the photo stitches that I took in Costa Rica. There are two stubborn ones which I’m not having much joy with (very wide angle both horizontally and vertically, so the resulting photo looks very fish-eyed). Here are five of the panoramas which came out great. You can scroll around the panorama in the Java Applet linked...
Read MoreCosta Rica – Week 2
Have been without internet for the last few days, and with good reason. Went to the Caribbean coast for 5 days, to a great area in and around Puerto Viejo, which is half Spanish (Costa Rican), and half Reggae/Jamaican. Very laid-back and rural. The reason I had not internet is that our “hotel” was a tree house. Yup, all wooden, no outer walls, and built around a tree....
Read MoreCosta Rica – Day 2
I wasn’t planning on writing again today, but today’s events were even better than yesterday, and while I’ve got free internet at the hotel, and my family are all early-to-bed people on holiday, I thought I’d write some more :) A couple of things I forgot to mention yesterday were that they play lots of Salsa and Merengue music everywhere, and that every...
Read More360 Degree Panorama of Cambridge in the snow
Well, it took 2 weeks to get round to finishing off the photo-stitch – it was a tough one, took several attempts, lots of manual tweaking, and it’s still not quite perfect, but good enough! There were 36 photos, and the final cropped panorama weighs in at 56 megapixels. You can scroll around the panorama in the Java Applet linked below. You can drag the view around with...
Read More1 hour in the snow
It snowed in Cambridge again today (the heaviest UK snowfall in the last 11 years), not quite as much as in Oxford or London, but enough to make every other person wander around town with their camera :) Taking advantage of the glorious and beautiful snow, I left home early and wandered around the pretty parts of Cambridge taking photos before work. The last time it snowed, I...
