So the theme allows me another chance to include an image of South Queensferry. Now WWP has 3 aerial images taken from the same place. I spent neatly 30 years in the manufacturing facility shown in 2009, but by 2014 it had gone, to be replaced in 2016 by a residential development. This is what we call post-industrial Britain, I'm not convinced...

This technique produces two hemispheres, and a different workflow in PTGui from the
classic ground pano technique. This results in extra effort BUT impossible angles!
