Cable car, built in the sixties down to the glacier. So you can see the shrinking.

Posterization in the sky

•  Info created by Matthias Kabel - uploaded by Matthias Kabel - nominated by Matthias Kabel
  Full 360° panoramic view over the Pasterze showing the valley of the glacier which is vanishing to warmer climate. Sharp from the closest to the farest, no stitching errors, no blown highlights in the snow, no real black shadows, tourist to compare sizes. Geo location is there. A full resolution is also available File:Pasterze_panoramic_view_01.jpg. -- MatthiasKabel (talk) 11:22, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Support very good.--Two+two=4 (talk) 14:26, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Great quality. -- JovanCormac 16:16, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Impressive. There's just a little spot in the sky above the rightmost cloud that could be smoothened a bit. --NEUROtiker ^⇌ 17:41, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Comment It seems most natural for me, if it the version of the largest resolution, which is nominated. From there, there is a link to this one - for convenience. Would anyone mind if we changed the nom to the largest resolution version? --Slaunger (talk) 20:50, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

The full resolution may cause problems to display on some computers. MatthiasKabel (talk) 04:22, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

That is correct, and the full resolution image also exhausts resources on my not so new nor resourceful laptop. Nevertheless, this is a problem with a significant fraction of browsers/viewers now, but in five years time, it would probably not be a problem for most users, and I think FPs should be long-lasting... --Slaunger (talk) 17:20, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Comment When I see it in full res in my browser, there is a 1 pixel height grey line in the lower right side of the image - see annotation - can only be seen in full res. Besides that, a very impressive stitch.--Slaunger (talk) 21:13, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

corrected, at least in this version. The upload of the full version ends in an error right now. Will be uploaded later. MatthiasKabel (talk) 05:21, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Resolved

- I have removed the annotation again. --Slaunger (talk) 17:20, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose Very visible posterization in the sky. I'm sure it can be corrected. Will support if done. --S23678 (talk) 02:58, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

also some improvements with the new version. MatthiasKabel (talk) 05:21, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Mmmm... better, but still not smooth as it should be. If this is not from your out-of-camera pictures (which I doubt, since vigneting is not visible in the posterization), I guess at one point in your workflow you sacrificed quality, probably for size. I would suggest you rebuild your panorama directly at the shown size here (preferably in TIFF format). If it's not working, maybe your stitching program is flawed (I never had posterization problems in Hugin, if you're using another program) --S23678 (talk) 11:15, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose I agree with S23678 (and on his proposals for improving it) that posterization in the sky is a problem. Strange what the origin of that is? Could you add some technical detail in the file description as to how the stitch has been done? Otherwise a very impressive detail level - there is so much information in that image. I would be very happy to support if the posterization issue is solved. --Slaunger (talk) 17:20, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose posterization doesn't seem to be getting resolved. Lycaon (talk) 19:59, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

 Comment I'm on vacation right now, my laptop is not able to handle the original file and it makes no sense to resolve the issue only on the smaller version. MatthiasKabel (talk) 11:38, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
