ParticipantManoa campus, at least at first. I have the option in my third year to move to the Hilo facilities if I wish to pursue an instrumentation Ph.D. (which is unlikely, but not impossible).

ParticipantHey, if you’re going to be on Oahu next month, would you mind checking out some apartments for me?
/I keed, I keed. But seriously, though, I’ll be asking your advice on living out there over the next few months. I’m going to need lots of advice.

ParticipantI’m in full agreement with the awesomeness of the montage.
Maybe classic alphabet photography II should be spell a word, stitch together.
I would enjoy that, especially if I had more time. I had about an hour this week to go search for letters. Thankfully, I found they were everywhere, so it didn’t take too long. I think my vote totals are reflecting the small amount of time I spent on it, though. Not a great week for me, even if it’s a great week for the contest.

ParticipantThat was seriously awesome, CauseISaidSo. It should be posted in the thread somewhere.

ParticipantI have some very similar shots to your first two, Orionid, but I’m thinking I’m not going to use them. They’re just not impressive enough. At least to me. The third one, however, is pretty cool.

ParticipantYay, my first theme! I was expecting fifteen minutes to be first, but whatever-the theme scheduling procedure is as mysterious as it is puzzling, and I’m fine with that.

ParticipantI think a really good volcano shot could easily win this theme. Sadly, I don’t have one (yet). I’ve been thinking about my entries for this contest for a while now, and I think I’ve chosen three good ones, but I’m going to have so many bees.

ParticipantPlama – dueling 395s? 😀
Hell yeah. Most of my best (read: my favorite) photography is taken just a few miles from the 395.

ParticipantBlast-I was hoping this would be after I move to Hawaii so I could get all three in one shot. I guess I’ll just have to fall back to the thousands of mountain shots in my archives.

ParticipantI can’t wait for this one. I have one pic I took as soon as I voted for this theme that I love, but getting more is going to be difficult.

ParticipantUS 395-BEST. HIGHWAY. EVER. My favorite, anyway. I’ve spent many days driving it.
Edit: Great shots, by the way. I noticed, however, that you didn’t have any shots of Mt. Morrison, which is probably the most photogenic mountain on that route. It would have been off to your right some time between Mono lake and Mt. Tom, and it looks like this:

ParticipantI still have to do the control points manually, but I don’t mind that too much.

ParticipantAfter wrestling with the software for hours, I think I’ve finally worked everything out:

ParticipantOkay, I went back yet one more version to 2010.0, and it seems to be working…almost. Here’s the best result so far:
https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/PI4stMXQPohwxKORIO7-7AgoPNmLZef3e7s-RQjQBBY?feat=directlinkThe stitching seems to work, but the exposure blending is still a little…off. Also, even though I installed the control point generators, the program still says they’re not installed. I’m sure I can figure this out with tinkering. Thanks for everybody’s help!

ParticipantI took the suggestion of using previous versions and downloaded 2010.2.0, which kind of works, but the results are a little…odd:

Also, when the preview window pops up now, nothing works, and it crashes when I try to hit auto-crop.I have the feeling this program would be great if I could ever getting it working.
