    Are there electrical Cserkúts? Or maybe that is why so may of the murals have blank spaces. Broken Cserkúts. Or perhaps the murals were painted by short Cserkúts and they couldn't reach those spaces.

    OK, go ahead and make fun of where I live - Ahwatukee.

      Well, for a couple of centuries it served as a protestant church and they white-washed the walls. But this preserved the murals underneath (mostly during the Ottoman-Turkish rule when they would've been destroyed anyway).

      I hope to get some better pictures today. Ideally a nice, interactive panorama would be best.

        I just shot a bunch of panoramas in Spain and highly recommend Microsoft's free Image Composite Editor (ICE). You don't even have to load the photos in order. In all but the most equivocal cases the software can find and stitch the matching edges.

        The largest I did was 18 images wide with camera in a portrait orientation. The only problem was the resulting image was too large to load into PhotoShop.

          Csaba, that looks like a cool old church. It reminds me of an old church in Colorado we visited before Basecamp. That church wasn't nearly as old and didn't have the frescoes on the walls but it is old for where it is. I took some photos of it but won't clutter your thread with them.

            Dear Gaieus,

            The pews in your small village church look very similar to those in mine (St. Peters, Wolvercote, Oxfordshire, or at least the end pieces. I modelled one of the pews some time ago (see the attached)

            Regards,
            Bob

              So I was there today and soon there will be some more pics (maybe).

              Roger; thanks for the tip; I'll check it out (although this time there was no panorama eventually).

              I love that place though. The next village has another beauty - the only problem is that nothing but its steeple has remained in its original, Medieval form.

              Then on the mountain right above this valley, there is the second largest prehistoric earthen fortification in Europe (the largest is somewhere in Spain) from around the first millennium B.C. In the middle of this prehistoric fort, there are the ruins of a 13th century monastery...

              Everything in walking (well, hiking) distance with beautiful view from the mountain and such.

              Gai...

                    Is she willing to come? She can be your designated driver. 😄

                      I go away for a couple of weeks and you slip off and get married! Well congratulations.

                      Regarding panos, here is one composed with the ICE technology. The original is well over a gig and composed of 18 photos with a zoom lens at 18mm (all shot in portrait mode)from a monopod - the overlaps were not calculated but visually estimated). You might not be able to see cars in the facebook version, butin the original you can see cars and almost read the license plates. Had it been shot from a tripod with a non zoom lens, I feel certain you could read the license plates.

                      (www.facebook.com)

                      For this long distance work the nodal points are not an issue. For a project like the church you would need to use a tripod and carefully make sure the lenses nodal point corresponds with the axis of raotation.

                        Those are beautiful pictures, Roger! Thanks for sharing them!

                        Well, a picture of the wedding (inside). Fortunately I cannot be seen on it... 😒

                        Finally we did not taker any panoramas (my brother did not bring a tripod at all...)
                        Next time.

                          I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.
