More Room Pictures

Pictures at end of post (EOP?) .

I had more pictures to go with the bike post, but it was cold and the blog software was having issues ‘cause the connection was spotty. I’ve got some better pictures of my room for you today, though.

Now, my computer can’t stitch these together quite right, as you can see (so don’t worry, my laptop is still in one piece and mostly flat, despite what it looks like), but I think the continuous photo gives a much better idea of how the room is laid out on that side.

“But why only the one side?” you ask. Due, I think to barrel distortion (correctable, but slow) and parallax effects (boned) at close range, it is very, very difficult to get close-up shots to stitch together properly. I took these from the far corner of my room, and, honestly, after an hour of trying to get the bastards to cooperate, I decided to give up for now.

The first attempt was trying to get 20 pictures of various orientations (Ahem.) to try and fit together, which was kind of a lost cause. So I instead just crossed my fingers and hoped it could correct the barrel distortion. Low and behold, it worked. Well, it worked enough.

Oh, by the way, the high-res version of this thumbnail weighs in at .999MB (1,300 bytes short), down from the ~10MB PNG I was going to upload.

It might take a minute, is all.
