Congratulations John!
Be sure to take a photo of the flag once it's up :)

I post panos fairly regularly here in NG, but this is the first one in a while to post to this particular thread.

That is a great overview, Akira. And very wide, did you use many photo's?

Thanks, Jakov.  Recent years we have various interesting clouds here in Tokyo.  That proves that the climate is unstable, so it is mixed blessing...

That is a great overview, Akira. And very wide, did you use many photo's?

Thanks, John.  I used 12 images in portrait orientation to stitch this pano whose horizontal coverage is nearly 170 degree.

Keith, you were blessed with the beautiful scenery in the first place for this amazing pano.  Did you handhold the camera?

The Chateau d'Yvoire (built in 1306, but largely destroyed by the Genevois in 1592, and converted into a house in the 20th century) on its promontory, and Lac Leman.   Four film frames stitched in Photoshop Elements.  Nikon 85mm f/1.8G, Ilford FP4 scanned on an Epson V600, grain boosted.

Great overview Keith.

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

Thanks!  Did you try to pan around the position of the entrance pupil even roughly?

Best advice on the stitching process
« Reply #208 on: August 29, 2016, 11:49:23 »
I may have missed it earlier in this thread, but would anyone care to share some of the points that turn a good stitched set of images into a great one?

Thanks!  Did you try to pan around the position of the entrance pupil even roughly?

For example, what are the upsides and downsides of doing/not doing this?
And does it depend on the focal length used, software & any included optimisation etc?

For example, what are the upsides and downsides of doing/not doing this? [rotating around the entrance pupil]
And does it depend on the focal length used, software & any included optimisation etc?

First and foremost, successful stitching depends on components of the scene being static and how much geometric error the images contribute, and worst of these are parallax errors when part(s) of the overall scene is close to the camera. in the latter case, rotating around the entrance pupil position is highly recommended.

Do note here I only talk about the technical outcome of the stitching process. Whether the final result works as a successful photograph has little to do with the underlying technique and stitching is no exception.
