Comments on The London Map please - digital panoramic photography site
Hi,
I have spent the last year shooting The London map (http://www.the-london-map.co.uk). It has over 100 panoramic shots of London, England, linked to an interactive map. I would appreciate comments / suggestions on where to go from here, or what people think of it. Thanks Peter |

Looking at the North bank from there, I can see Charring Cross Station. But where is the Charring Cross Railway Bridge? - is it underneath me? There are two Hungerford foot bridges. They run either side of Charring Cross Bridge, on the same level, like this: ------------- H B ---------------- -----------------------| ================================== Charring | =============C X B================ Cross | ================================== Station | -----------------------| ------------- H B ---------------- If you are on the downstream Hungerford Bridge, with your back to Charring Cross Bridge, you are looking towards The City, with St Pauls Cathedral being one of your most prominent landmarks. If you are on the upstream Hungerford Bridge, with your back to Charring Cross Bridge, you are looking towards the Palace of Westminster (Parliament), and the London Eye. |

Terrific site. As a frequent visitor to London from the USA it was
enormous fun to see that you caughts several of my favorite places. Maybe one thing you could do at some point is focus a bit more on the tube system and railway stations....what's near main stations, or even a few shots of the big public areas in stations...good orientation for the traveler. . In some cases you've done that, but once one gets thinking.... Cheers, /ron Peter Watts wrote: Hi, I have spent the last year shooting The London map (http://www.the-london-map.co.uk).

Great idea, tons of work. Thanks so much! Really a lot of fun to look at.
The suggestions that a poster made for how to improve-- really! When I was in school, we'd tell those who were always making suggestions and didn't want to do any of the work-- get out there and do it yourself. |

And when I was at school, if someone *asked* for suggestions and then had a problem receiving them, they'd get a kick in the teeth. Read the OP, he clearly says "I would appreciate comments / suggestions on where to go from here" What part of that don't you understand? -- Owamanga! |

Thanks Peter Great idea, one small point - using a Java player means you don't get the perspective correction if you'd used QuickTime, you get a more 'imersive' experience, so to speak. You could then most probably create larger images. For full screen panoramams have a look at: http://www.panoramas.dk/ For a similar theme, possibly slightly slicker: http://home.vrway.com |
