Your web site is very easy to navigate as are your tours. Nice job.
On the minus side, your Nadir patching technique needs improvement.
It seems as if you did not put on as much time removing your tripod as you did in shooting and creating your panoramas. Some people patch before stitching, others patch during and others patch after. For me it all depends on the panorama.
You also need to remove the tripod shadows.
I put this page together to show one way to deal with shadows
www.dlsphoto.net/Tutorials/TripodShadows/index.ht...
Pay closer attention to the opening view when your panorama loads. Even though your thumbnail looks good, some of the opening scenes show a post right in the middle of the screen. Make your opening scene show exactly what it is you are trying to show.
One more thing: DITCH THE FAKE LENS FLARE!!! Our eyes do not see lens flare. There is no reason to add defects that we try so very hard to avoid in the first place.
Your web site that is a place I want to stay and look around. Easy navigation, good panoramas and appropriate music. Nicely done.
Dennis

Hi,
The tour looks overall fine...There are no details in the shadows of the trees...If you are shooting in RAW (which I can highly recommend) you can adjust this in Adobe Camera Raw or similar raw processing programs - but be careful not to create too much noise in the shadow areas...The pano under the tree opens too slow, its resolution could be stepped down...You can reach smaller file sizes also by reducing the jpeg image quality...
Regards
Burak

I can see you!
I can see what appears to be your back, head and arm. Your shadow has a sharp edge to it. Even though the trees are there, your shadow still stands out. Removing your shadow is a tough thing to think about when you are out shooting.
Still in love with that horrible fake lens flare? It distracts, not adds. This is a picture, not live video camera feed.
