Congratulations Annie!

Thank you :) Everyone's asking me how I'm feeling - doesn't even feel any different as it's right back to school in Sept. Plus I'm doing an internship at TRIUMF. Seriously, it's like nothing changed.

ETA: I just messaged someone else, but would it be possible to change my username to LadyStardust? When I originally signed up, I had no intention to post and ... well, I signed up with my full name.

You must have used the panorama function on your camera, so it took 3 separate shots but then processed them into 1 wide image?

OK I needed to ask this question on a dumber forum, like "cat people" or something, and not one where physics and math people gather. You are 100% correct.

It was a cool moment when the thought occurred to me I could do such a thing. It was even cooler when my wife went along with it and took the picture.

HTC droid rocks.

Phew, in our family album I have such pictures taken on film in Autumn 1999 (that's what the note says), well before digital cameras:

No scissors, glue nor Photoshop used, just an EOS 500 camera and a Fuji film.

And while there is a scanner on the desk, it was NOT used.

I agree.

I've never used a film camera before but the only way I could think on to do that would be to possibly cover half the aperture so you expose one half of the image then switch the cover round and expose the other half, but that would obviously leave an artifact of some kind down the dividing line??

OR Borek has a twin brother?
