I kind of like it, but I have no idea why.

Interesting, Bruce. I like it too, but it's because, like Jerry Uelsmann's stuff, it's weird, but it feels right. It works.

It's quite a creative pano shot. Charming.

Thank you for your comments.  I also want to credit and thank the pano people at Adobe.  I shot the house with some premeditation and care, but the cars and their blending into the scene were gifts.  I had shot twice as many frames or so from that spot and the first pano I made was without cars, in spite of the heavy traffic, and generally lacking.  I did chose those models over a couple of others, but I just threw seven frames in the hopper set on Reposition and CS5 shaped them like that.
