La Toussuire ski resort, in French Alps.
  •  Comment It's hard to say... I have tried desaturate the blue channel but then the sky becomes grey-er. If I move the WB to warmer side, the snow becomes yellow... Give me a moment, I'll try to find a compromise. - Benh (talk) 18:05, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks, now I can remove my sunglasses. :) And of course  Support. Cool idea and good detail. The categories are a bit "all over the place", I'll see if I can help you with that. A {{Panorama}} tag with some info about how many photos where used and such, would be appreciated since I guess this is not a single shot. --Cart (talk) 18:21, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes it's a mosaic shot. I'm not really up to date about the templates, so thanks. I'll share the details. I gave a thought about categories, but couldn't find a better one amongst those I could choose from. - Benh (talk) 18:24, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I left that to you since I thought that you knew better than me if it was a place where people were actually living (settlement) or just an event resort (other). --Cart (talk) 19:02, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is distorted. The panini projection mitigates the distorsion somehow (compared to a rectilinear) and still keeps shapes "true to what you'd see in reality" but doesn't do magic. You can check Google Maps to see how it is in reality. The drone is a Mavic 2 Pro, which comes with a very nice 1" sensor camera. Only it is a bit noisy (even by 1" standards), but that isn't a big issue in bright conditions. Since it's a mosaic, the quality "per size" is quite good. - Benh (talk) 14:11, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's about 200° of horizontal FOV (Hugin computed 240° but I cropped even further), so hard to avoid. I believe the stretching at the borders is similar to a 13-15mm rectilinear lens on a FF camera. - Benh (talk) 14:21, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
