Matthew - clearly thats the way to go if one looks at your results. Good image.
But then I look at the iphone pano and want to scream with frustration that nikon cant do that.

I believe the D3300 does have a panorama mode.  I don't know how well it works, but it sounds from what I've read that it still has some problems.  I have a little Fuji XP-60 pocket camera that does panoramas, and the results are not bad, but it requires a pretty steady hand.  There's a menu choice of width, and if you don't get a pretty fair percentage, it stops with no image.

A stitch is not always a panorama  ;)

John, this is intriguing!  Is the bokeh background also stitched?!

Thanks Akira.  Yes. I took the main subject as Photo 1 and the other 8 are the 'surroundings'.    It's called the 'Brenizer Method' and creates an extra shallow of depth.

 In fact it gives the 85mm  f/1.4 lens (which I used here) a kind of  45mm f/0.8 lens.  According to a calculation on this site.    http://brettmaxwellphoto.com/Brenizer-Method-Calculation/

Thanks, John, for the link of the method that is totally new to me.

John, that is a rather revolutionary concept :)
Although, if I have to nit pick, the background is not as creamy as it should be with the 85/1.4 :)

Yes, true. That is due to the larger distance. A disadvantage of the method.   ;)             I should have moved closer  (which was here impossible due to a number of obstacles).   There is always room for improvement.

It is yet another interesting way to deal with stitching technique
My current favourite is still the multi focus:

You create a set of extremly shallow DOF shots and bring two
different levels to focus/interest, leaving the space inbetween
blurred. I first saw that 12 years ago done by Willem van den
Hoed which got me investigating further into that. You can stitch
these by hand or use some advanced features of specialized
software like Kolor Autopano.
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

Hey. Funny. I know this guy. He was one of my first Flickr

Very nice guy. Everybody can learn from his work.

Especially for Jakov --  More bokeh ! 

This time a 15 photo stitch (but more overlaps between them), nearly the same position, different lens ;)

Yes, Ryan Brenizer is the one who gave his name for this kind of stitching.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brenizer_Method
