Colin, I have nothing to add to what Bjørn says.

I tend to avoid closer objects in my panos.  Fortunately most of my cityscapes (whether they are successful photographs  :P ) have been shot from the sixth floor of the emergency stairs, and I try to hold the camera as horizontally as possible not only sideways but also along the optical axis.  As a result, the closest object in my final stitched images will be at least tens of meters away, which helps me avoid parallax.

Great overview Keith.

Unusual overview Les. Large scans? It's a bit contrasty I think.

The scans are not very large - each 35mm frame is about 4MB.  The sun was high and the light was harsh and there was quite a lot of haze, so it was always going to be contrasty - but I did use the clarity and contrast (and sharpening) sliders with a heavy hand.  I am experimenting with ways of representing photographically how natural beauty relates to its political and social context.

Nice colours, Chris. Reminds me of a postcard from the Sixties.

Another Stitched panorama (Bokehrama) of an artwork in a difficult position. Aim was to enlarge bokeh and have the artwork sharp centrally.  a 19 photo stitch.

Thanks!  Did you try to pan around the position of the entrance pupil even roughly?
No...I have found that with no subject close to the camera, I can ignore the nodal point issues.  All of that scene was far away.  Thanks for the compliment, by the way.

Keith, thanks for sharing your experience.

This 10 stitch pano of the 'City garden Piushaven' will be used on a 5 meter flag.
With regard to #194                      The flag is still in stock, but the banners are ready.

A 5 stitch pano of the 10 stitch pano  ;)

Yes, I could tell that you used two different stitching methods.  But to me, the weirder, the better!   :D
