(Explore) 20101014cd Great Court Panorama

My thirteenth image on explore (8/2/2018) reaching No. 23!

The great court of the British Museum, in London.

Designed by Foster and Partners, the Queen Elizabeth II Great Court transformed the Museum’s inner courtyard into the largest covered public square in Europe. It is a two-acre space enclosed by a spectacular glass roof with the world-famous Reading Room at its centre.

Panorama composed of 28 shots taken with a Nikon D40 and a Nikkor AFS DX 18-55mm F/3.5-5.6G II lens, stitched together in Hugin, then processed in GIMP and Photoscape.
