Stockholm, Sweden

VR Tour

These photographs come from a Baltic trip to Helsinki, Stockholm and St. Petersburg. After this trip, I purchased some new panorama software, called AutoPano Pro. "APP" as it is called is much more automatic than my other tools, and handles handheld-shot panoramas with a lot less work. However, as yet it can't fine tune panos as perfectly so I will still be using Panorama Factory for some of these.

You can also visit other galleries of Europe.

Other Stockholm Panoramas

Because some new panorama software makes it easier to assemble them, I have several additional ones not shown here because they are either less interesting or are variations of what you see here. Check out Other panoramas of Stockholm.
