Another Alpilles landscape

High definition landscape around Eyguieres in Provence
Cliffs around Eyguières - Alpilles Massif


Another view of the Alpilles Massif, also done with my old Nikon D100, the Tamron 17-50 and PTGui.

12 frames were stitched to produce a high definition file which has been cropped to fit the 4x3 aspect ratio. I'm always amazed to see how PTGui can perfectly stitch images with such a complicated vegetation.

You can visit the original file whith Zoomify here. Not exactly the original file because the 16 bits TIF file has been converted to a 8 bits jpeg before uploading but it can give you an idea.

That looks like fun.. do you use a systematic approach on the exposures, such as left to right, top to bottom? You can print that one large enough to fill an entire wall, and you don't need a D3x that costs as much as a small car, either :-)
This area doesn't look at all like I thought it would.. the typical vision in my mind of St. Tropez is of the sea, beach and boats. This landscape is remarkably like parts of California and the quality of light is very familiar, too.

Mark, this place is around 200 km far from Saint Tropez.

With 12 D3x frames i could fill 2 walls :) I know you're a reader of the Luminous Landscape, did you read the post about the P65 panoramic ?

I find the image serene and peaceful. The overall atmosphere is ambient and gentle.

I have printed so many images at home that a lot of them are stacked up one over another...

Good shot!
