Bergen, Norway Panorama

I've been messing around with Photoshop's automated image merge feature. On most of my personal trips for the past few years, I've taken several panoramic pictures with the idea that I would merge them later. Unsurprisingly, I never got around to it. With Photoshop's merge feature, it was incredibly easy and very quick to get these panoramas stitched together.

My posts this week will be a handful of the many panoramas I've been making. We begin with:

Snow Rollers

Snow rollers are the opposite of fire tornadoes, but they're just as awesome!




Snow rollers are essentially snow tumbleweeds. They start as chunks of snow blown along the ground. They pick up more and more snow and they're blown until they are too heavy for the wind to push it anymore. They tend to be cylindrical because the core is often weaker and thinner than the outer layers, so any snow inside ends up blowing away.

Here's What's Wrong With America



These are single serving sweet potatoes.

Let that sink in. I'll wait.

They SHRINK WRAPPED, PRE-WASHED sweet potatoes

It's a wonderful thing they make this product! Otherwise, I'd have to get a regular sweet potato and wash it! AHGAHGHAGHAHGHAGH!

It would take longer to unwrap this thing than it would to wash one yourself!

This is what cooking in America has come to. We're doomed.
