I use CS3 too. So quick. Here's a photo from the "Commedagh for the Red Arrows" meet. It is a combination of 6 individual pictures to create the panoramic view of Newcastle with one of the Red Arrows coming through the Donard/Commedagh Saddle. All pics where taken on the day but I openly admit they are stitched together. Just want to show you an example of what can be done in less than 2 minutes:
Nice work Dowser. I use the photo stitch tool in Photoshop as well, it seems to do the job well. Mind you, I've only ever taken a couple of pano's and keep meaning to do more as I really like them. I'm a big fan of Colin Prior's photography (http://www.colinprior.co.uk/portfolios/scotland-an-ancient-land/) and the Scottish landscape panoramas he shoots are awesome. Only problem with pano's is that looking at them on a monitor doesnt really do them justice... they need to be printed out B I G :)
This one was taken during a snowy spell at the start of last year on Cavehill:
