Hanover in 2.3 Gigapixels

Hanover Triptych by W-Mark Kubacki

Hanover Triptych by W-Mark Kubacki

Last weekend I’ve grabbed my camera and climbed up Hanover’s Neues Rathaus to make a panorama of Hanover. I admit, I got a bit enthusiastic and shot about 390 pictures…

It was a hell of stitching the pictures together, but the result is a brilliant 2.3 gigapixel panorama.That is, about 3×12 metres if you wanted it printed at 400ppi.
The triptych displayed above is derived of it, consists of three 45×30cm pictures exposed on metallic photo paper. Its colors were intentionally shifted into silver to emphasize coruscation.

Update: Indeed, I do sell edited versions of the photographies, 3x A4 for 12€ and 3x 30×45cm (larger than 3xA3) for 27€. Printed on Kodak Metallic Endura paper at 400ppi.
S&H is 3€ for Germany. For larger formats up to 3×12m write me an email.

Update 2: I’ve received the first exposures from labs and their quality was surprisingly good (with one exception on the large format). Therefore the first lot of 3xA4 will be distributed after the holidays.

To save webspace I’ve reduced it to 1.5 gigapixels and compressed it as JPEG for you. To view it Read more »

Hanover’s vast fair grounds

Recently we’ve been to the fair grounds in Hanover’s south. The overall impression on weekends is, that this place is a big, vast ghost town.

In case you missed it: The second third photo is no church but a huge canopy.

Himmelsaufnahmen

Jeder Sportfotograph hat sie, seine “Schusssammlung”. Bälle bewegen sich schnell und meist hat man zu spät ausgelöst, diesen mit dem Torschützen aufzunehmen. Also wird aus der Sammlung nachher eine geeignete Lederkugel nachträglich ins Bild geschnitten.

Aber eine Sammlung, die jeder Landschafts oder Outdoor-Schönwetterfotograph (wie ich) hat ist die mit Himmeln. Auch, weil man daraus schöne Poster oder Triptychon für Freunde generieren kann…
