Skydeck, Part 1

A few blocks from our motel was the Skydeck. It is 400 feet high with 3 observation decks at the top.

This panorama was made by combining 5 pictures.

This panorama was made by combining 4 pictures.

This panorama was made by combining 6 pictures.

I've combined pictures before into panoramas. When I combined the pictures of Crater Lake, I noticed that the curving of the horizon becomes very apparent when the pictures are being lined up. I had to turn each frame using a graphics software in order to fit them together properly. So when I was taking pictures of the 1000 Islands area from the Skydeck, I turned/tilted the camera slightly as I followed the horizon. When I went to put them together, I didn't need to use a graphics software. The pictures seemed to fit together naturally.
