[OM] Chuck's pano is on Zone-10

<http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=19899>

These images are an assortment of different crops of my Live Oak Allee image. I 
was going to ask for preferences. But that was before my wife discovered what 
the aspect ratio looks like of a 2x5 foot print. She it totally aspect ratio 
challenged. Doesn't understand it, can't visualize it.

I'd been telling her for a couple of weeks that I was going to build a large 
panorama from the many images I'd taken at Live Oak Allee. Turns out she really 
had no idea that a panoramic photo is very wide but not very high. She freaked 
out when she realized that a 2x5 foot photo really is very wide and doesn't 
look anything like the 24x36" print that's already there. She was also 
insisting the any "proper" picture must have a frame and be covered with glass.

We've just returned from the bone doctor's office where one of the docs is an 
avid photographer and his work is displayed all over the office area. 
<http://www.mikolnaturephotos.com/#!/index> I showed her that not one of the 
photos on display has a frame (they're all mounted on aluminum plates) and 
certainly no glass. I think I've won on the frame and glass but still have to 
do work on a proper pano.

She's agreed that the 48x30 is OK... looks more like a normal photo to her 
because it *not* a pano. I don't much care for the 48x30 since it has too much 
sky. But that may be where I have to go if I'm going to hang it in the dining 
room. Thoughts? Don't worry, I won't tell her what *you* said. :-)

This is my favorite from Mikol. 
<http://www.mikolnaturephotos.com/#!/portfolio/C0000u3GooCAClzs/G0000WOvDgtIPtuw/I0000mwyPYYHM2mM>It's
 the "Angel Oak" on John's Island near Charlie's territory. I've never seen it 
other than in photos. I'll have to go shoot it one of these days. It's hanging 
on the wall in the bone doc's offices. It's printed about 7-8 feet wide and 
maybe 5 feet high. It's done in several pieces arranged such the the breaks 
between the pieces make it look like you're viewing it through a window with 
large panes of glass... a clever way to reduce the cost of such a large print.
