Autzen Stadium, PK Park, and Pape Field panorama

I suppose an animal with eyes on the sides of its head could view the University of Oregon’s three sporting venues (football, baseball, and soccer) all at once. Us humans need to photomerge six photos together to see them at the same time. This is a 180 degree view from the deck next to the Autzen Stadium Press Box at halftime this past Saturday.

SOU Football moves into a tie for 1st in the Frontier Conference

Panorama of Raider Stadium in autumn

Yesterday the Raiders found out that Rocky Mountain College will be forced to forfeit their prior victory against SOU due to an ineligible player when RMC squeaked out their 35-30 win back in August. RMC is appealing the verdict, but barring a change this means that SOU moves to 5-1 in the conference with a head-to-head matchup against the other 5-1 team (#7 ranked Carroll of Helena, Montana) in less than two weeks.

Bay Bridge Series 2013

I have only been to one MLB game this year, a Giants-A’s game back in May (pictured above). I have been to several professional baseball games in Asia though. This weekend I plan to see a different Giants team; the Lotte Giants (of Busan, South Korea) will be taking on the SK Wyverns. It will be my first time in Sajik Baseball Stadium which is supposedly the best baseball stadium in Korea.

PK Park panorama

PK Park – Eugene, Oregon – Home of Ducks Baseball

On Friday night the Ducks were on top of the world. With a 3-0 lead heading into the 9th inning, and a share of 1st place in the Pac-12 within sight, all seemed to be going their way. The Beavers then loaded the bases in time for this photo. The batter, Danny Hayes, hit a rocket to right that could have evened things up, or put the Beavers ahead, but the ball went foul. The Ducks hung on to win the game and move into a tie for first. However, losses on Saturday and Sunday to the Beavers make it unlikely that anyone will be able to catch the Oregon State team with just three conference games to go.

Grizzly Peak photomerge

Grizzly Peak has been a frequent subject on this blog. I have taken photos from this spot on numerous occasions, but this is the first time that I photomerged nearly 180 degrees of scenery from this location including a bit of East Main Street. I stood so that both sets of power lines would run straight from my position once photomerged even though they actually are perpendicular to each other.

Snowy panorama

Photomerge from Mt. Ashland

Today’s pic is from this past weekend when I did some snowshoeing on Mt. Ashland. I took 7 vertical photos and put them together to come up with this one horizontal one. Doing such makes Mt. Shasta (to the left of center between the trees) and the rocks on my right look much smaller than they actually looked at the time. I’ll post individual photos of what Shasta and the rocks really looked like in a later entry.

View from Peabody’s Lookout

Mount McLoughlin from Peabody’s Wayback

I went on my third snowshoeing adventure yesterday. I parked at Buck Prairie, snowshoed Peabody’s Wayback, and the location above is at or near Peabody’s Lookout. I never saw a sign that said Peabody’s Lookout so I may not have actually made it there. The trail ran out at this point so I headed straight down the mountain and ended up between the restroom and Natasha’s View on the map so I figure I was close to Peabody’s Lookout.

In the distance in today’s panorama photo you can see a portion of snowed over Howard Prairie Lake and beyond that Mt. McLoughlin on the left and Brown Mountain on the right. Next time I’ll have to bring my 70-300mm lens instead of my 14-24mm lens for a much more close up view of these beauties.

Snowy Ashland landscape

photomerge snowy I-5 ashland

Ashland, Oregon snowy day

I tried something a little different for today’s photo. I wanted to do a photomerge of I-5 with Ashland in the background with a twist. Normally, I photomerge by taking a series of photos starting with the left and moving right and then stitch them together in Photoshop. However, with most of the traffic coming from the right (heading south) I thought, “what if I find an interesting vehicle and capture it in several of the images?” When I saw the yellow school bus coming I started firing away from right to left. Hence it (and the cars right next to it) show up multiple times in the final photomerged panorama.

Buck Prairie Nordic Trails

180 degree panorama of Buck Prairie Nordic Trail in the snow

I headed up Dead Indian Memorial Road to Buck Prairie yesterday. The clouds were thick, but for a few minutes on the trail, there was a bit of blue when I took today’s photo. This panorama is actually 9 vertical pictures stitched together into a horizontal landscape. I was trying out my new snowshoes, but most people out yesterday were on cross country skis as you can see from the tracks in the snow.
