Quebec and PEI

Finally got around to processing my photos from a trip down the whole length of the St. Lawrence River in Canada. Started in Nova Scotia, hit Prince Edward Island, and Quebec. Here's a shot I took with my new Nikon D50 with the kit lens. Not bad results, considering I didn't have the tripod with me. It's six frames stitched together. Looks really good printed out at 14x44 inches in size. Wish I had more room. Anyone else doing pano work?

Beautiful shot. I am wanting to learn how to do pano pics. I've just recently started reading up on it. What program do you use to stitch your photos?

I'm using PhotoStitch 3 from Canon and the Panoramic option inside PhotoShop. These work very well, as long as nothing is moving. I've done some great seascapes where waves suddenly stop at the edge of a frame. Much Photoshopping needed to make it look like a normal wave.

I used to have a 6cm x 18cm panoramic camera I built for this type of shooting, but doing with a D50 and a tripod is a lot easier with better results. Just remember to lock down the exposure for all of the frames.
