Kelly, yes, although I used manual exposure mode, some transitions in brightness can be seen rather clearly. - There is another interesting pano software which I tried out: autopano pro. The demo looks promising, particularly the blend module produces very good results. (And yes, I am from Bavaria.)

Gerald - Thanks for the information. I'm interested in looking at new stitching software whenever the pano occasion arises. PTGui is the best I've found so far and I've been using it for a few years. I have yet to experiment with the stitcher that came with my new Canon.
Do you live in Bavaria or just visited there - really cool.
Were all 19 shots done in manual mode with the same exposure settings of 1/60s @ f/5.6?
Kelly, I like your association with a rib cage. I have added the missing technical information after looking for the original files with exif data on the external drive.
The panorama was stitched with PTGUI. It was a lot of work indeed matching the key points and I am not really lucky with the result as the columns do not fit together perfectly.
The church, built in the 15th century, is located in the small Bavarian village Inchenhofen (I don't think that anybody know this place), the paintings were added in the late 18th century.

I really like this a lot because it makes me think of a Hieronymus Bosch-like setting of some surreal skeleton whose rib cage is filled with wild and mysterious contents.
How many shots make up this pano and what camera settings did you use? Where is the church located? What stitching software did you use.
