Title: Volubilis, Morocco Panorama Exploration
Location: Volubilis, Morocco, Africa
Description: The ancient Roman ruins at Volubilis were reconstructed in the early 1900s thanks to the French government. Today it is an enjoyable day trip from Fes. It is situated close to Moulay Idriss (click link for a panorama of Moulay Idriss), which can be seen when zooming into the image on the right side, beneath the pelican roosts.

This is a really nice pic, I don’t recall seen a panorama with a foreground object so “close” and I like the idea.
I would had imagined much more (and very ugly) distortion on the ruins, did you corrected that on post?
The distortion was corrected by the program, but there wasn’t a ton of it. Shooting with the 10mm allowed for me to be far enough back so there wasn’t as much perceived distortion.
