First PANO Attempt

Skippy

Well unfortunately the day was really really dull, so the sea and the sky looked like they blended into each other......... looked like it sewed together alright :dunno this lot was hand held, and I fumbled from there on :rofl

nice shot, pano's are something i'm always going after. How many shots have you joined and are you doing the joining manually or with specific software.

Handheld? Wow, nice job, steady hands.

I like it even though it is a little gray. The sewing looks seamless to me. I've always wanted to try joining pictures like that...I'm going to have to find a good landscape and try it out.

I joined 6 pictures together, and I actually hand held all the shots, I just used PhotoShop Elements 3 to join them then crop the whole thing.

I joined three at a time, cause when I tried to do all 6 in one hit it wouldnt put them in the right order........... Skippy (Australia)

The first image is not right........ you can see in the reflection in the water the first yachts masts reflection in the water is not right ....... but I was happy that it all joined up rather well

I need to try some more out like that, but next time I need to use a tripod

I was kinda surprised meself, cause I can't hold still for quids
I tried to fire them off in a fast smooth flow, even after I joined them, I didn't have to crop much off the entire linked shot at all.

I tried to do this once before with my Sony, it turned out but gawwwwd it wasn't as good as this one faults and all turned out

Thanks for looking...... yup I gotta try this again...... Skippy (Australia)

It's Winter here, and though it was a beautiful still day, the main colour was grey, slight mist across the bay sorta causes the sky, the background, and the sea to all appear to be one colour.........the bay area is like a cove, and often looks like a mirror, peaceful, and calm.

Give it a try, it's fun to do, even if you don't get it quite right, they end result can still be quite pleasing............ Skippy (Australia)
