Caption
Work on the present building started in the 11th Century and the Monastic Church became a Cathedral in 1109. It's a vast, impressive building and the small town of Ely gradually grew up around it. The splendid Octagon Lantern Tower where this panorama was taken is a star attraction. On a previous visit, a few years ago, the floor directly below it was clear, which enabled a camera to be ideally positioned, but alas, that area is presently occupied and roped off to visitors, as can be seen in the panorama. Hence the slightly offset position.
Equipment
Canon 40D + Tokina 10-17mm fisheye @ 14mm. Nodal Ninja 5 panorama head. Software: PTGui Pro, Photoshop CS3.
