Hi Gaz, yes that is a fair argument. However it is pretty much impossible to reach those islands without a boat (and I don't have one). It's probably more practical to take one of the ships that travel on the Rhine, and I will probably do that later in April, but shooting a panorama from a moving object is hard. Also, a big disadvantage of such a frontal panorama would be that would be very wide, probably too wide for many purposes on wiki. --DXR (talk) 10:43, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
DXR no argument intended! Twas just the wishful musings of a lover of civilisation panoramas... I'd say find a nice young man/lady (if you haven't already got one), pack a picnic, and charter a simple single outboard motor boat, and take a trip out there... Enjoy the view, picnic and the company, and while there try a panorama from that side :D ... you're welcome........ hehe gazhiley 16:48, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
