Nice shot, but it would be much easier to view if you restricted it to 1000 pixels. As it is some of the effect is lost by having to scroll the image from side to side.

It's certainly a well composed image. I'm not sure if the shadows going every which way helps it, or not.

Formby Point? Nice image, I like panoramas like this, although there are a couple of errors in matching up tree trunks, especially (unfortunately) right in the middle of the pic.

Shame on you!

Assuming you mean the ones top left (quarter of the way into the image).

Theres a few small mistakes around where the two right most trees from the front left bunch are.

those two stumps on the ground however, are meant to be there.

yeah, they looked liked stumps, so didn't mean those. Think we're talking about the same bits - seen between and to the immediate right of the two trees at the edge of the grass area front left. If that makes sense.

What focal length did you use? I tend to do my panoramas with my 50mm lens (for minimum distortion), and the camera in portrait format (for maximum height), but without a special tripod head you still end up with mis-matches with closer objects. Many of my pans are of wider views though, so I can get away with it.

16mm landscape format

no idea why, usually I would use portrait format
and probably around 20mm, but that depends on the angle of view

I use Hugin, where you define the control points yourself, it usually works out exceedingly well.
