I'm new to pano's... here is my second attempt, on the Venice Beach Boardwalk -

Serously...you've practically mastered this type of photography. Every shot is so well done. Oh, and really sweet gen I Montero. :beer:

Processing 10 year old film this summer reminded me my SLR had that pano switch on it.

That further reminded me how I used to line up shots with a 35mm p&s, looking through the fresh prints I found several that lined up. Wish I would have overlapped these for better stitching.

Those prints inspired me to take my first digital panoramics this summer and got hooked. 9 images

I think this screen capture in itself is a very cool image!

So I have a couple of 'technique questions' for those practicing this format...


1. Do you start from the left side, or the right side?
2. Are you right or left handed?


Not that I expect either of those to make a big difference in the end result, but I think it would be interesting to see.

Hmm, interesting question. I'm right handed and always start taking a pano shot from the left. Never thought about why I do that but as I think about it, I always do.

No pattern to where I start from as far as I can tell.



Just today found two to make this one from while catching up on some 2008 albums.

Some longer ones from this summer.
shot right to left, metered for the left side.

That is great work, xjblue, that second one is with the low light and faded mountains in the background is just awesome.

Something from September of 2008.

first attempt

using Photoshop CS2 automate photomerge with 6 frames.

 

[nwoods]

can you post an image that's 1280x whatever? This one is too small to appreciate

 

[mtnbike28]

I tried...

go to www.jaycapers.com

not sure why the 1280 cropped is still so small.
I am not completely happy with the attempt, but wanted to try it.
