Earthrise, one of the most famous images in the world, is almost always orientated incorrectly, at least from how it was originally shot.

Exciting software: Photosynth
Already mention in my Exciting software blog, Photosynth is now released to the public.
This has been around for a while now, but is still pretty impressive software. The idea is it can take multiple shots of the same area and stitch them together to create a 3D world. You can then move about in this world, moving in and out of various areas.
You can try the software out for yourself here:

(A warning though, any photos you upload become public.) They say you can create a impressive shot with as little as 10 photos and they suggest you start small. For a guide on taken photos see this PDF’s but some quick tips to get you started:
- Overlap the shots alot
- Take zoomed out shots
- Shoot the same thing from different angles.
The software works on either XP or Vista across most of the leading browsers. Let me know how you get along and have fun.
