This must be one of the more decent apartment views. I went round on a lazy Friday today to see a dear designer friend in Helsinki - the first Finn I ever met way back in '64. This panorama is from his balcony. It is the bay leading into the south harbour. The red and white ship is the Viking ferry to Stockholm that leaves at 6 pm. The rival Silja ferry is concealed behind the building to the left. In the centre are two islands both with summer restaurants. You get to the restaurant on the right (red spire poking up) in a small launch that goes from the shore directly beneath the balcony. It's a 2 minute trip.
The panorama was auto-stitched together using the PSE panorama tool and covers about 170 degrees and 5 frames. First time I'd used it - but I was amazed how well it worked. The original panorama before resizing for ET was about 50 meg. You can't be me, I'm taken
