Must fly!
Why does it matter what they used. It's the final image that counts.Yeah, initially I was going to vote for 3 cropped entries.
But lots of people didn't say what they'd done/used.

Taking one photo and cropping it isn't the same as taking seven and letting a computer knit them together. It's not a level playing field.
I'm not saying the competition shouldn't stand, and I didn't say anything until it had finished. I've just not voted, that's all.

Interesting, and I follow your logic Onket. I approached this (as a newb round here) with a feeling that the final image was to speak for itself regardless of origin or process. This makes for an all inclusive state of play, a big plus in my book.
For any interested, my pic was 2 raw images converted to tiff and manually stuck together in Gimp, then finished as a jpeg.

I read neonwilderness' simple 357 point guide and thought it wasn't for me 
Then RoyReed suggested Hugin was the answer but it wasn't because after 5 minutes of mucking about with it I realised it was going to take more than just another 5 minutes to make it work. 10 minutes is about my limit for working out how things work.
As it turned out, I realised I didn't have to (which I only realised after Roy picked Grandma Death up on it and pointed out the 2:1 thing).
I see what Onket's saying though. The comp has always been about the image as Chilli.s says "regardless of origin or process". The panorama theme meant you had to do some sort of processing - though most people do anyway I suppose.
On the other hand, I really liked the theme, there were some excellent pictures in it & I learned some new things.

I just wish it had been this months theme instead. My new camera stitches panoramas really well.
