I do like shooting panoramas. They're tricky to get right and, despite everything, don't always work out as planned but occasionally you get a good 'un. For your delectation, I offer the following for your consideration. Extra marks will be awarded for anyone who can guess what it is.

Enjoy, and comment as you see fit :D

Maybe an old dam or reservoir?

Hmm, not bad but it's actually a 360 panorama of the interior of the world's largest settler tank in a long-defunct chemical plant. It was used in the manufacture of magnesium hydroxide from seawater—the reaction took place in the twin reaction tanks to the side and then pumped into the tank to precipitate out. This particular tank was 340' in diameter and held three million gallons.

Below is another panorama from a more conventional perspective.
