Original images were taken with the mediocre lens of my wee camera. Thus the image was huge and square, showing little detail.
I used an image editing prog (PSP 7.0) to crop the images and get rid of the extraneous crap. There's a lot of that in Albuquerque... extraneous crap. ;-)

But the panoramic images do give a good idea of the view from my home here.
The drawback is looking out the front. All I get there is a view of my asshole neighbor. :roll:
