Morning Blues

Near enough the largest image(file) I have produced so far. 11 image stitch taken at 35 mm . Once stitched the 11 x 16 bit tiffs came in at around 76 inches wide and around 850 mb 

Nod and a wink to Christian for waking us up ;)

  2. Taken last weekend in Denmark, there is a ton of places to photograph down there, just such a long ass drive though.

    Are you interested in exchanging blog links?

  6. Sounds good Dylan I look forward to seeing the image. When I was dow there I did not feel that location warranted a large stitch and managed to capture what I wanted in 3-5 images. I have several images from that area that I am yet to post, one in particular I really really like but keeping it under wraps till my site is up and running.

    As for PTGui I am still on the fence about it, sometimes it works well for an image other times CS3 does a better job (in my opinion) I have an image from Dunsborough for instance that came up well using PTGui but in CS3 blew me away with the results (yep another image yet to be posted).

    Most important thing I learnt from that Saturday night at Christians Gallery was finding what works for you. Right now I have ben experimenting a lot with focal lengths and stitching and processing techniques with what we all learnt that evening and slowing finding my own format for doing things. I think in the end this gives a little bit more to having your images become more of an extension of what you see and not just a clone of what others may do ….

    I also do not process an image the first time I open it. I may do the stitch and then leave it for days and just come back and view the image several times before I process, I just find it gives me a better idea of where I want to go with the image, that maybe because I have so many shoots to go through at present, that the catch process is going to take me months to complete.

    Again this is just my 2 cents.

  8. I have to do things my own way since I still havent got CS3.
    My sugarloaf rock photo was posted on my blog a while ago. It’s on my site under new images if your interested.
    I really need a job, but I want to work at a framers or somewhere related to photography.

  9. Very impressive! I would like to see how this turns out if you ever get it printed… I can’t wait to get down south tomorrow. I just wish I had more time to spend down there.

  11. I’m just stoked as the photo did exactly what it should do for me, it helped me to remember some very pleasant times there. My wife and I went through there on our honeymoon.

  12. If you don’t have any money for stitching software, you can use HUGIN. Takes a bit more work than PTGUi and Autopano Pro, but hey, its free.
