Hi Carl, Looks like you had nice weather and color for your trip. I really like the shot from Schwabachers Landing. The whole series is very nice.

hi Carl, wonderfull shots all.
did you shoot in landcape format or portrait? alot of people shoot portrait to get bigger files.
i gave up on photomerge, now use PTGUI sticher.

Super shots, every one. Tell me, when you print these out, what is your favorite paper for these type of shots, especially those involving water? By the way, does GTNP stand for Glacier National Park?

Thanks, everyone!
Phil,
I usually shoot every scene in both portrait (vertical) and landscape (horizontal) orientation. Granted, shooting in vertical does require almost double the number of shots to cover the same area but in the cases posted here, they are all horizontal stitches. I typically shoot in vertical when I am very tight in horizontal mode, where the top and bottom may be in risk of being cropped/'pinched' when stitched. Vertical orientation gives me more breathing room and allows for more liberal cropping should I choose.
oh man , wowzeers dude , super set ! brilliantly done sir. My 1 small and silly nit here is the 4th image , the bit of grasses in the left corner foreground is a bit "forced" and harms for me the overall intent of the scene

Harvey, thanks!! I have never printed anything this large before. The largest pano I've ever printed was a 10"x32" - these are going to be at least 50" wide, some even 70" wide.
I found a lab today in Columbus, GA that can print these for me on Fuji photo paper or metallic paper. They can also print on Fuji Pearl paper which is similar to metallic but holds up better to scratches. I am leaning towards Fuji Pearl paper.

excellent work

Thanks, buddy!! I keep looking at that too, not sure how I may print it.
Fantastic vistas of a fantastic mountain range. Panos are indeed lots of fun, especially in a great place like this. If I had to pick a favourite, it would be #5 followed closely by #1 and #6. I wonder how they'd print though, I have a feeling they are a tad too wide for printing.

They are a bit wide but I went out shooting these with that in mind. I want to print these wide, as wide as possible. I may go the route of mounted canvas prints, possibly in collections. Meaning, one pano may be comprised of three different canvas panels, each being a section of the entire image. I am thinking that may work best.
