I read that as 'Tried a Piano' so I was expecting something else.

That white bit at bottom centre distracts a little Doddy, and it lacks a focal point - a path or something. The main thing is you're coming to grips with the nuts and bolts of stitching shots together - you just need to think of some suitable subjects. Nice though.

hehe, I had to check the spelling when I previewed it, I thought it looked like Piano as well

Wouldn't disagree with any of the comments, I actually found it quite difficult to find scenes I thought might be suitable, despite the fact there's hundreds of thousands of acres in the Cairngorms :eyesup:

Long bridges are great for panoramics.

I have the same problem with scotland everytime I go, It's a fantastically beautiful place and always takes my breath away, but somehow incredibly to capture that in a photo!

Dod, where did you take this shot?
I was on the road from Grantown on Spey up to Nairn today and I'm sure I saw a scene exactly the same.

pretty good, but as mentioned already, needs something to draw you through the scene

damn good effort though!

Just outside Aviemore, on the road up to the chair lift, second road on the right if I remember correctly

Lecht can be pretty spectacular around the Ski Centre in winter, but take a spade, blanket and flask...I nearly got stranded last year after taking these on my A95! (Courtesy of extremely over-compressed Fotopic.net)

BTW, Don't those damned roadworks south of Nairn on the A96 drive you crackers?
