Here's a photo I took with the Pano application for iPhone. This clever little program takes up to four separate images from the iPhone camera and stitches together a panorama. The building is the Tower of Memories at Crown Hill Cemetery in Wheat Ridge, Colorado.

I'm hoping to take some panoramas on the way back, but they'll need to be done when the train is at rest, since alignment is crucial to pulling off the stitchery. Not sure how many more photo opportunities there'll be, since even though the train leaves Denver at 8:15 tomorrow night (or supposedly does; we were an hour late arriving from Chicago), most of Colorado and much of Nebraska will be in darkness.

At the very least, perhaps I'll encounter more eccentrics.

NOTE: Unless I'm favored with some unexpected 3G network connections, I won't be posting anything here until I return to Chicago. Look for photo updates on my Flickr pages.
