Graham, wonderful work.  If you read some articles on shooting panormaics, 
you come away with the idea that you need a special tripod/panoramic head 
combintation to get any usable results.  

I currently use the photo stitching software function in Photoshop CS2.  Its 
very easy and produces good results.

All the best,

Richard Clompus
