| Took the camera out this weekend....
...and headed out to Snake Lake in Tacoma, WA. The lake is located within a nature center right in the heart of the city, just a stone's throw from Cheney Stadium. This is an often overlooked treasure that few would expect to be found within the city itself and yet thousands drive over it every day as Highway 16 passes directly over the lake.

| Hey stranger.  
Nice to see you and your pictures. Is the first one upside down? Or are my eyes failing? |

| Hehe... That would be a reflection off the lake. It is right side up and yes it was just as disorientating in person at times.

Nice photos Braz. I have to admit, the first photo had me fooled too. I thought it was upside down.

said by Gizy :Braz, what's a fake pano??? Heh. I did a panorama shot four shots across and three rows vertically. However the actual skyline shots overexposed and I could not get them to work with the rest of the picture.
After about an hour and a half of banging my head against the problem I had a thought about how to get the image without having those shots available to me. I took the bottom half of the panorama, copied it, flipped it over and joined it to the lower shot at the water line. I then went in and removed as much debris and such as I could to make the top not look like the reflection in the water that it was.
I think the final result was fairly pleasing and mostly accurate. But it is still a fake.
