Nordic Combined — Five Months Later

3.15.2008 nordic seq.jpg

Winners podium at the Nordic Combined US National Championships at Soldier Hollow, Saturday, March 15, 2008. Left to right: 3rd place- Eric Camerota, 1st place- Bill Demong, 2nd place – Johnny Spillane.

I shot this when there was still snow on the ground, five months ago. Finally got around to piecing it together though I still only had time to run it through Photomerge in the auto mode which is less than perfect. You really need to build these manually for the best results…until Photoshop CS4 comes out.

(Hey Adobe: Why is Photomerge giving me jaggies in a 281 megabyte file? Look at those edges.)
