Panorama Photo

Hesbjerg is an old favourite of mine. In the 90's I spent many hours in the spring here, looking for raptors and enjoying the view.

The view goes much farther into Sweden than into Denmark. The view is better than from Gilbjerg (#14004), except here you don't see Hallands Väderö. From here one can see, that north-eastern Sjælland is more forested than the rest of Sjælland.

I was here for the first time in many years, with my son, and I almost had forgot how beautiful it is - but sadly also growing over, as so many other viewpoints:-( It is a tumulus with a 100x25x25 cm trigonometric stone on top. I managed to "climb" it and shoot a couple of series just in time before clouds closed in for good. Sadly, I had to descent for the tele series, so as to prevent any damage to equipment, teeth and bones:-)

Maybe the leaves and twigs in the two sides are disturbing, I just like to frame the pano, so one can see why it ends.

Pano made from 21 pics (RAW), 50 mm, iso-100, 1/400 sec, f/8, developed in DPP (neutral, cloudy, moderate sharpness), stitched in PTgui pro, minor contrast adjustment in GIMP (less highlights, the shadows brightened), re-scaling and sharpening in IrfanView.
