Panorama of bare tree branches with a random scattering of dried seed pods against a washed out, partially cloudy sky
Ricoh GXR, 50mm f2.5

I really liked the texture of this tree's branches. I captured a panorama of it, since the 50mm focal length wasn't wide enough. In order to maintain full view of the branches, I had to crop with some blank spaces visible on the edges/corners. There are editors that could fill in the blanks with cloned backgrounds, but I don't mind the imperfections.

I remember using imperfect borders as a graphical element for panoramas I'd shoot with my iPhone 4-something back in the day. I should experiment with doing that again.
