A Goodbye to Yankee Stadium

An interactive feature in the New York Times of Yankee Stadium on it's last night is described as a "panorama composed of a series of photographs taken over a short period of time." Is this the work of Photoshop, stitching the overlapping photos together?

The home of the Bronx Bombers and 26 world championships that Ruth built that dates back to 1923 held its final game earlier this week. The last game was a celebration of baseball, the renowned stadium, the franchise, and its fans. And what else? A logo, always painted so perfectly on the grass that not even the Pope's feet may touch. An interlocking "NY," according to the Yankees website, was first used on the uniforms of the New York Highlanders in 1909. The design was created in 1877 by Louis B. Tiffany "for a medal to be given by the New York City Police Department to Officer John McDowell, the first NYC policeman shot in the line of duty. Perhaps because one of the club's owners, Bill Devery, was a former NYC police chief, the design was adopted by the Highlanders." When the Yankees move to their new stadium next season, Yankee fans can find comfort both in seeing their same team and the same logo painted fresh on the lawn, even in a vastly different setting.
