Always the rather good microsoft ICE program for stitching if you don't have PS or don't want to spend the money on PTGui etc.

Herb -- Always interesting work!

Here are a few small ones using the Zeiss ZE 21/2.8 and Canon 60D on tripod in vertical orientation.

2 rows of 7 shots each

4-shot panos (the magnolia features "follow focus" from near to far distance in each shot, l to r)

It seems I am seeking the title "King of the Banal Panorama"!

Let the terror of banality continue. . .

I just received the Canon 15mm Fisheye lens -- the first time I've owned one since the early 80s when I had a Sigma 16mm FE.

Within minutes of its arrival, I had to test it, right? One of my attempts was a quick backyard pano.

For this (low rez/quickie) 5-shot pano, I used LR3 to de-fish the images from my cropped 60D, then stitched in PSE8, then back for cropping and perspective in LR3. It would be nice if LR3 would include a stitch feature and we could end this jumping back and forth.

I can certainly see commercial uses for this lens, either single images or panos.

Here's a 4-shot example from full frame sensor. There is one obvious area of error in matching, but it gives an idea what could be achieved with FF and more exposures of narrower angles. The main problem is that these were hand held and should be on a tripod for more exact registration between images.

If you wanted to liven things up some, you could always shoot panos of other people's back yards.

Or... If you had Photoshop you could just select those images in Bridge, and in one click get this:


I had quite a few sets of images fail in Photoshop's photo stitcher. It's hardly a panacea.

Photoshop constantly fails to stitch my panos. I couldn't make it even once!
PTGui does "exactly what it says on the tin"!

Thankyou mr Montag
I like the lack of distortion in shifted pano's/mosaics. Looks like a very nice garden.

Ajay, I like the stormy weather pano over the mountains.

From yesterday. Playing with Microsoft ICE to stitch things now, as of 2 days ago.....wow, way faster than CS5 on my computer. No crashies is good!

16 shots. Canon 7D with Yashica 50mm F2. Hi-tech GND (2stop soft?), Gitzo tripod, Acratech b.h.
