Description One last fall around tuffo towers. Well this is my back garden here in courdemanche, France. The cliffs are a man made feature in the landscape, excavated by hand + explosives in the 19th and 20th century. Pretty much all the buildings round here are built with the use of this material (note the barn on the left), which is soft and chalk like. Its just pretty sweet having such an immense cliff face right in front of me as soon as i walk out the door. We had some sweet nights with the sound system set up in the barn, few dj's, BBQ, strobe and lights on the cliffs, right load of nonsense .

So this is the first time i have tried a panorama using more than 3 photographs, and the previous times was relatively easy, such as only having to blend photos of sky or something, but with experience manipulating photos i generally got the hang of it quite quickly i would say. It looked awesome first time round, but then my computer, soundsystem, lights all turned off in sync, f'kin power cut... i had to use some unsavoury words in the company of myself... so this is same photos, second .psd and it hasn't turned out as sweet as the first, basically because i rushed this, being frustrated n all to get completed what was theoretically finished. So i would appreciate any kind words from people experienced in this field.... if anyone is out there... watching... ta.

Yeah, being around these natural features of the land makes spending time alone incredibly easy, my dad had to go and work for 1 or 2 weeks at a time and i just became so interested in walking around and enjoying different levels of nature. There hasn't been any checmicals whatsoever used on this land for at least 50 years, and everything is soo alive... I'm missing it already.

Very nice view! Though the first thing that came to my mind was: "Hmm, I wonder what I'd see above that rock in the middle...". The way the panorama doesn't show the whole rocky cliff leaves me very curious. The buildings on both sides of the cliffs keep the picture together very nicely and the colours are great! So many different colours, but they seem a bit too grey in some places. With the help of Photoshop's Color Balance, Curves and Levels, the colours could really stand out in all their glory. That might be only my opinion, though. I really like colourful photographs.

I only wish I could have a backyard like that.

Hey cheers man, i'll start playing around with the curves and levels straight away, i can remember stumbing upon it once but never knowing what kind of thing i could use it for. Nice one for the advice!-
