Of course I do...that's why I'm asking, of course. Plenty of panoramic diptychs out there...start your own thread;)

Indian Canyon, Ladder, Yosemite National Park
Two Type 55 negs
Almost panoramic, both taken in Indian Canyon. This is how the telephone cable leaves the Valley and heads towards the East (I think). The ladder is to access the cable for repairs.

Good ones, Jim. The color works well creating a sense of Place. And the repeated forms plays tricks on the eyes and forces one to pay attention to what is going on. Almost a panoramic, but with a twist.

The ladders in Indian Canyon are bolted to the granite. Two of my boys and I climbed up them last April and it started to snow on us. Coming down them was scary...it would be quite a fall, and the metal was getting very very cold on our bare hands!

I took the photos about 12 years ago (before kids). I don't think I could get my 8x10 up those ladders (4x5 with the pod strapped to the camera pack is probably doable for me...but it is quite the climb for sea level lungs)!

Totally pointless, but far from panoramic ...
