Hoover Dam Parking Deck Panorama - a photo on Flickriver

Equirectangular panorama overlooking the parking deck at the Hoover Dam at Lake Mead, just outside Las Vegas, Nevada. You can see the dam in the background (and our rental car in the foreground). This day was blistering at 106°F.

You can see all the power lines radiating out from the dam, but its primary purpose is water control for the Colorado river basin and the southern california farmlands, not for power production.

The immersive version is here.

[Info: created from 18 shots (8 @ 45° up, 8 @ 45° down, 1 zenith, 1 nadir) taken with my homemade pano rig and the Sigma 10-20mm @ 10mm, f/11. Stitched with hugin.]
