this is one of the backgrounds that was used for the outdoor shoot, harsh backlight, lots of shadows, and ducks....... this shot was done a little to the side of the portrait shoot to get more even light and to not shoot direct into the sun........ 5 shot pano, using photomerge in PSCS2, kit lens and Kingpano tripod head.....

only looking at it on my notebook right now but it looks like a nice stitching job and a nice shot also.

well done.

That worked out really well Bernie. What aperture / speed did you use??

camera set to auto, and exposure changes as you swing into the sun from 200th at f7 to 350th at f8....... all shot in raw

How is it that the joins aren't evident with the differing exposures?? Everytime that I shoot a pano on auto there are dark/light waves across the shot where the frames join

and not over expensive........

Nice pano Bernie
I was also looking over your shoulder as you took this and was surprised to see you use AUTO and AUTO WB....

There are some pic of the pano head itself in this thread.

when shooting simple shots I use the KISS principle....... auto works very well, as this was just a general overall pix, and not what I would call a keeper, just a bit of fun......... if you look you can see a shitty duck.......

EDIT: I always shoot in RAW and auto white balance, this gives me greater control when using ACR and later PP......
