Kenilworth Castle
  Gallery  

Here are some panoramas that I » have taken of Kenilworth Castle as a repeatable testcase using various cameras, lenses, and motorised mounts (tripod heads) over eight years, most recent first.  For more of my images, see speleotrove.com/gallery/ ».

All of these images have considerably more detail available than appears in the thumbnail; I have written, and recommend using, PanGazer » for viewing any panoramas once you have saved them; it is especially useful for viewing the 360° images.

The first two, here, are 360° spherical images for context. The remainder are all ‘flat’ JPEG images (neither spherical nor 3D).
