A first Pano attempt...

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.

Forum rules
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.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

A first Pano attempt...

Postby Bindii on Thu Jan 11, 2007 11:43 am

I've wanted to have a go at Pano's for a while but never seemed to get around to it...mainly because I tend to leave the tripod in the car and can't seem to hand hold the camera to get a close enough match...yeah..I'm slack...

Taken in Paris from the Eifel tower...damn its a long walk up those stairs!

Bindii - cool shot :) Maybe have a play with this shot in HDR - would have fantastic results, and highlight all of those areas that you've lost in shadow .... I'm assuming you've got this series in RAW format?

Anyhow, if you are interested - have a look at http://www.hdrsoft.com
they have a freeware version :)

You know...I ALWAYS shoot in raw...well nearly always *slaps forehead*...when I was overseas I shot mostly in Jpeg as I was figuring that they would mostly be just 'happy snaps' of my time there...memory was also an issue as I only took three gig of cards with me...but lugged the laptop around for downloading....(I think I have the worlds heaviest laptop btw... :?

But yes I am interested in HDR...and have already bookmarked your link...thank you! :)

Great pano Bindii,

Love the city coming together at the end. How many shots was it?

Highly recommended, tried the trial version, bought the software.

Cheers,

André
