Hi Sam, this image is absolutely fantastic! I'm a little fan of your work. Thanks for sharing.
Posted by Lucca's Café at January 11, 2007 03:49 AMImpressive! Not many would have picked that as a stitched shot.
Posted by seriocomic at January 11, 2007 04:07 AMConsistently good images . Thanx ...
Posted by leedee at January 11, 2007 04:46 AMthat's really nice, I can imagine it would look really good printed out and hung on the wall.
But before you do that you might want to apply a little photoshoppery to the people on the pavements where the two halves are stitched together. If you look closely you can see a pair of legs standing at the curb, and on the other side of the road a guy appears twice - once in full, then a few metres further on he's just a floating torso :-D
Posted by Dan at January 11, 2007 05:08 AMnice shot. Just out of interest, where is the join?
Posted by Aidan at January 11, 2007 05:17 AMWow. Breathtaking. Brilliant shot
Posted by navin at January 11, 2007 05:37 AMWow, the symmetry is almost perfect! But it's still awesome! Great picture.
Posted by vg at January 11, 2007 05:46 AMBeautifully done! What a view!
Posted by Laurie at January 11, 2007 06:26 AMhi, i love your photos from italy, and another ones too...but this, is wonderful, my really big love is this city - Rome, for me it's best place, forever.....so continue with publishing your photos from Roma and Vatican, please :)
your fan from Czech Republic, Europe ;)
Posted by michal marek at January 11, 2007 06:59 AMWow! Love these all-encompassing photos. Do wish I could make it smaller in order to see the whole thing within my screen. Is there any way to do that?
Posted by catsmeow at January 11, 2007 08:17 AMCertainly a masterful stitching job for I can't see the line at all - easily. I'm puzzled by the light in it. It looks like dark clound shaddows cover spots near the top and especially the top in the trees which are very black on my screen.
The Church of Rome has certainly created a collection of very odd buildings over time.
You are giving us some not too common views of this extravagant place. Thanks.
Posted by Hugh Petrie at January 11, 2007 08:24 AMBeautiful shot, and great stitching! I really like the way the top of the monuments helps lead the eye up the street to the top of the frame. Very nice!
Posted by Alice at January 11, 2007 08:25 AMI know this is opposite to what you usually hear, but I'd actually like to see a smaller version, 800-900 pixels high, so that I can get a sense of the scope in one view.
Posted by JVL at January 11, 2007 08:27 AMVery nice!
Posted by Jodi at January 11, 2007 08:31 AMNice joining of 2 different photos.
Even if it was raining and bad weather, the colors are rather nice.
Interesting to watch at. Thanks.
boy, I'm not one to drool over every little thing you do, but I really like this one.
Posted by danny at January 11, 2007 09:18 AMDieu est grand !
Posted by Jonas at January 11, 2007 09:39 AMHey that streen doesn't have any lanes. Just on wide lane. Nice tall shot!
Posted by Nate at January 11, 2007 09:41 AMwow! amazing shot!
Posted by mel at January 11, 2007 10:08 AMCrikey! Epic and delicate at the same time.
Posted by boje at January 11, 2007 10:09 AMReally a gorgeous composition!
Posted by sophieandersen at January 11, 2007 12:39 PMWOW, that's a great capture. Love it =)
Posted by greenshift at January 11, 2007 01:07 PMHola! Estupenda foto, que me ha hecho recordar mi viaje a Roma. La recojo para mi Blog.
Saludos.
Gollus.
Very cool it just kept scrolling and scrolling, almost like standing there.
Posted by Jeff Ambrose at January 11, 2007 02:12 PMWhat a beautiful shot Sam! Rome is just about my most favourite city, and you have captured the colour beautifully. Hard to believe I see only 6 tour buses. Back when they allowed traffic into the Piazza, I've seen about 20 at any one time!! Thanks again, for sharing.
Posted by Henry at January 11, 2007 02:14 PMfantastic...
Posted by Daniel at January 11, 2007 03:46 PMAha...i see it now...
Posted by Aidan at January 11, 2007 04:03 PMI love it! It's fantastic. There are so many details. Great capture!
Posted by Marcel at January 11, 2007 04:40 PMgreat symmetry at the bottom on the photo
Posted by Andrew at January 11, 2007 05:28 PMWow, this one blew my mind. As I scrolled down and saw all the symmetry, I was amazed. Thanks for posting all of these wonderful picutres!
Posted by Ben Kennedy at January 11, 2007 09:50 PMAmazing and Awesome Photoshop skills! You never cease to impress me everytime I visit your site!
Posted by Athen C. at January 12, 2007 12:12 AMThis picture has so much depth Sam and is increasingly lovely to look at with each new glance, great job once again.
Posted by shane j montgomery at January 12, 2007 05:30 PMYou have a new fan. Great shot and very nice stiching job.
