End of the Line

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 30 mm, 1/3 sec at f/11, ISO 64

A week or so ago Gerry posted a few stitched panoramas taken outside (one of) the abandoned Helensburgh train tunnels

I’d never been inside this particular tunnel – only the good one on the other side of the road. That one is conceptually better – it’s much longer (kilometers), still has the train rails in the bottom and has glow worms in it

This one is very short – perhaps a hundred meters long

The first image is taken inside close to the other end looking out to what lies beyond

The second image is part of a 50 frame stitched HDR panorama. I took it just inside the entrance to the tunnel so I used a 5 frame exposure bracket for each shot. I was originally intending to just shoot the inside 180 degrees or so (which you see here). However it wasn’t much more effort to complete the full 360˚ rotation

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 14 mm, 1/2 sec at f/11, ISO 64 x 50 Frames

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.

The complete 360˚ view is below in a nice little pano viewer so you can pan around, etc
