Long Way Down ...

Long Way Down ...
The view from Sutton Bank looking west towards Thirsk.

Created from 10 separate images stitched together in Photoshop, a technique I'm still experimenting with, but I think this one works okay.

For those that may not be familiar with this Yorkshire landmark, Sutton Bank (also known as Roulston Scar) is in the Hambleton District of the North York Moors National Park.

The A170 road runs nearby with a maximum gradient of 1 in 4 (25%), and including a hairpin bend. Not surprisingly then vehicles have to keep in low gear whist travelling up or down the bank and caravans are banned from using this section of the road.

At the foot of Sutton Bank lies the little village of Sutton-under-Whitestonecliffe, which at 27 letters long has (according to Wikipedia) the longest hyphenated place name in England.


For the Sight and Sound group, what else, but Dire Straits ...

A marvellous view. Love all the green tones and great use of the panoramic format. An immediate fave for me. A perfect musical match to classic Dire Straits. Brilliant. Thank you very much for posting to 'Sight and Sound', Paul.

Geez Louise, Paul, this is truly awesome. (Love it full screen.) What a beautiful patchwork.

Duran Duran would be honored. (Really, I'm not buttering you up for anything, although a raise might be nice. ;)

Glad you like it Karen and thanks for taking time to view it large not to mention adding it into your faves ... not sure what Duran Duran have to do with it though - lol! ;)

Oops, I always get Duran Duran and Dire Straits mixed up. Something about them is similar (in my head anyway.) Sorry for the confusion. ;)

Only a panorama catches it all! I don't see any sign of experimenting, it's perfectly stitched.-) Not having Photoshop I use the free and easy MS ICE for panoramas.

Really appreciate your kind comments Gudrun. I use the Photoshop CC version which also gives you Lightroom for a small monthly subscription ... well worth looking at! :)

As for MS ICE, I've not heard of that one so my turn to investigate! ;)

Cracking panorama Roger. Certainly using portrait for such images has its advantages. The detail in this one of Sutton Bank is amazing. I shall have to try to remember to use portrait next time I try fro a panorama. Thanks for the information Roger, much appreciated.

All the best, Doug
