Photo Panoramas

Microsoft Research produces some amazing software. Image Composition Editor stitches an arbitrary set of tiled photos together with no effort. All you have to do is shoot a set of overlapping photos, then drag/drop them onto ICE. The software assembles the composite photo. Then you have the option of cropping and applying distortion corrections.

Outputs the usual formats, plus HD View and Silverlight Deep Zoom for really huge images.

Here’s a Silverlight Deep Zoom sample – assembled from about 40 images
