I have travelled to Stanley and Tai O and taken some pictures with my newly brought DSLR, Nikon D90. Unlike some traditional digital cameras, the DSLR does not have the fuction of creating panoramic photos.
In order to illustrate a scene in a panoramic way, some may suggest using photo editing software to merge several images together to form a panorama. However, Microsoft Labs have produced a convenient tool which enables users to create panoramas with a 3D-viewing environment without pain.
There are two products created by me:
1. Tai O, Lantau Island

2. St. Stephen's Bay, Stanley, Hong Kong Island

The geotagging feature included in Microsoft PhotoSynth makes keeping the records of panoramas much easier. Moreover, curious users can browse around the world map in the Photosynth website to look for Photosynths of different scenes around the world created by other users.
The 3D-viewing environment of the panoramas introduced by Microsoft Photosynth makes the photo-browsing experience more realistic and closer to the real-life situation. This kind of illustration could not be created by traditional photo-editing software.
Wow....3D viewer is amazing. It seems like that i stood into the picture and was able to look around.
