WWP Diversity – My interpretation for diversity

Viktor Balogh — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 11:23:54 +0000

This is my interpretation for the World Wide Panorama Diversity theme.
Unfortunately I didn’t have much time for finding a nice place for this theme,
I was in a big hurry because I worked all week and on saturday too.

I couldn’t find an idea that would be the best place for this event. After all,
we went to a nice Bavarian pub and restaurant called ‘Bratwursthaeusl,’ and
had some beer from 1l Bavarian mugs. We ordered a ‘plate of plenty’ too:
this is a large plate full of Bavarian food sorts. At last I thought that this would
be a nice theme – after some mugs we didn’t want to go further for another one.

GISS 2008 – Edelweiss at the Garden of Ruins

Viktor Balogh — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 08:10:38 +0000

Albeit I had pretty much to do to prepare for my lecture about panoramics,
we’ve combined work with pleasure and taken this panoramic at a terrace pub
at the Garden of Medieval Ruins in Szekesfehervar.

This picture is a not-so-official panorama, it wasn’t amongst the panoramas
which was in the handout. By the way, I hope you’ve got all the stuff I gave
to Mr. Bela Markus on the day I left. It is very bad that no one left here a
feedback or some words about my lecture. I thought that it was interesting,
by every indication during the lecture it was at least interesting for some of you.

Me and my girlfriend arrived just a day before you, and I had the difficult
task to compile the whole stuff for the lab part of the day. (I’ve prepared the
presentation about a week before, so that was ready a long ago.)
First we went trough the center to select the appropriate locations for the
panoramas, then took the source pictures and went back to stitch it together.
I needed to make all the stitching, at least I had a reference Hugin project file
if something goes wrong. These you could even download from here!

After that I’ve uploaded all the source images to the lab computers. In the lab
there was only Wi-Fi connection, and it turned out that it is unsuitable for
copying multiple Gbytes of data over it. So I burned some DVDs, and spread
the stuff with the help of these disks. It was very hot in that lab, the air condition
broke down, and the whole process took the half of saturday. Fortunately I’ve
finished with it at 8 pm, and after that I could have some beer at the icebreaking party.

By the way, the third glass on the desk is a fake, we had only 1 beer per head.
I just could retouch it from the final panorama, as I don’t have a source picture of the
background without the glass.

It is claimed that Belgian beer comprises the most diverse national
collection of quality beer in the world, and varies from the popular
pale lager to lambic beer and Flemish red. Belgian beer-brewing’s origins
go back to the Middle Ages.

Beer production in Belgium is now dominated by Inbev and Alken Maes,
however there are approximately 125 breweries in the country; in Europe,
only Germany, France and the United Kingdom are home to more breweries.
Belgian breweries produce about 500 standard beers. When special one-off
beers are included, the total number of Belgian beers is several thousand.
Belgians drink 93 litres of beer a year on average.
