I’ve been watching every playoff game for the Bulls so far and they are just too damn exciting. I decided to document the chapter room (our TV room) during the final minute of the 3rd OT in panoramic form. I shot manual/fixed focus, went from left to right, and stitched everything together. This was my first panorama with a lot of people in it, so I was a little unsure of how it would turn out. There’s a couple of seams I was too lazy to fix (Mike is missing an arm), the color temp was sort of a bitch because of different temperature CFLs, and Adam on the left is prolly the only thing in focus. But overall, I think it came out OK. Take a look (click for a large scrolly version):
I’m so glad I got to shoot a Bulls game this season even if it was only in exhibition. These two photos have been the wallpapers for my desktop and laptop for more than 6 months now:

Check out photos from that game in my archive here. At some point in my life I’d like to shoot a Cubs game from the media spot with a 400mm lens. I can’t even imagine…
white power.
