Photosynth is Awesome!
People see my photos and think I labor over my image and I’m this cool, brooding artist. But I’m just having fun with it.

I’m just back from my holidays, as I imagine many of you are too, and I might post about them later but I wanted to say just how fantastic the Photosynth application is from Microsoft. While I was off in Cologne I thought I’d give it a go, and below you can see my appalling efforts as a photographer.

What it does
Photosynth stitches images together to create panoramas live on your phone, and quoting from the website:
Photosynth is a powerful set of tools for capturing and viewing the world in 3D. You can share these views with your friends on Facebook, publish them to Bing Maps, or embed them in your own Web site.

It has a pretty clever interface that guides you in taking the shots, which it does automatically, I am unfortunately ridiculously cackhanded and mine have come out all blurry.
If you’ve any great ones let me know in the comments below!
