The first image with the Monorail is great. I really like that one. The compostion is brilliant and the distortion especailly the right hand side, reall ymakes the feeling of movement of the train.
The last one of the wedding is also very good. It holds a lot of interest to me.

these are great it has a real documentary feel to them
it is really cool how you chose those subjects/scenes for panorama treatments
most obvious panorama usage is spanning landscapes but you used this panorama technique skillfully to make ordinary scenes look like ultra wide scenes with great dramatic effect
especially the monorail and last beach shot
excellent work

My favourite would have to be the last one of the wedding. You've captured a very interesting subject very well.

I really like the wedding panorama & monorail. Good idea to get street scenes rather than just the standard landscapes. Are you stitching these together? I ask because at this low resolution they look like crops from a larger image. Not that that's bad or anything
I have been going a little crazy with panoramas recently , but only landscapes and these have inspired me to try some street scenes.

I didn't stich them but they aren't crops either. They've taken with Hasselblad XPan - 35mm panoramic camera (24x65 mm frame). So, they are as is

The monorail shot is just brilliant. Lovely tonings of grey and a skillfully chosen subject.

My favourite is the wedding shot Mikhail - lots happening everywhere but a serenity that oozes from the image. Was this at North Curl Curl beach? Sure looks like it.

Lovely camera Mikhail. I had one a few years ago, but sold it as I found it too difficult to scan negs from it. I had also switched to a full digital setup and away from film. I have regretted that sale ever since.

Paul,
These days there is no problem with scanning but problem with chemicals for film developing
From Ted's I took last 3 of Agfa 70 (C41) sets and no one else around (except Vanbar) has C41 in small amounts.

These are good subjects for pano's. The mention of the Hasselblad explained the lack of WA distortion...
I've been drooling over a friends spanking new GX617 pano camera, drop dead georgous views... I'm a sucker for a pano...

617... it's beatiful. Just imagine - it's 6x17cm frame on film .... Quality is perfect - it's like large format. The only disadvantage - just 4 (maybe 5) frames per 120 film roll
