Panorama


So after some exploring of some local nature tracks I found a lookout which Im going to keep secret (haha!)
I shot 6 images to make up the panorama, shot late afternoon keeping some important things in mind...
  • Use a tripod
  • Overlap each photo by roughly one third allowing good alignment when you come to merge the images a one
  • Use a smaller aperture to maximise depth of field (have the whole scene as sharp as possible)
Some things I could have done differently or thought to take into account
  • Shoot in portrait orientation instead of landscape orientation to avoid a skinny panorama crop, allowing more room top and bottom for environment detail.
  • Explored my surrounds a little more for a better position to include more of my foreground interest in the end result.
