Hobart Smelter Panorama

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Created this today. It was made from 48 images (2 rows of 24) I thought I would set myself a holiday challenge. After doing this one I am planning a large pano of the Hobart waterfront. The original file is 23868x4024 pixels.

That's a wonderful image and seamlessly stitched. You must be very proud of the accomplishment.

What program did you use for stitching? PS This is a better link to use for the larger version: http://tassied.smugmug.com/photos/118572886-O.jpg

Thanks for comments Peter and thanks for modifying the link I am still working Smugmug out (I think).

I used DPP to process the RAW files and then used Photoshop CS2 to do the work.

very nicely done mate. I have done a few panorama's. But nothing of this magnitude. It was getting painfully slow trying to stitch and edit 7-8 photo's, but 24... insane.

Im impressed, and you hsould be proud.

Well done. Not only for the stitching, but also noticing the great photographic opportunity.

Hi there Andre,

Newcastle? I am looking forward to seeing some panos from there. I used the Canon 28-135 IS USM @ 135mm

Wowsa, awesome shot I had a close look at on the hold the stitching is awesome.. a few hard to avoid bits with the surface of the water but other then that a absolute ripper..

By using CS2, do you mean by hand, lining them up ? Or is there a pano option in CS2 ??? :shock:
