"The panoramic image was taken in March 2012, a couple of months before the mill explosion and fire. A wide angle lens was used to create five digital images that were merged together. The resulting panoramic view distorts Riverside Avenue into a curve. The mill photo was taken around sunset from a meeting room of the second floor of the DeZurik building across the river from the mill.
