of two worlds
I am going thru a bit of a pano phase at the moment, I really like the challenge of being able to slice a piece of scenery to show something different and to be able to capture additional elements that just can't be achieved in a single 6×4 frame.
As a true testament to the ease of pano taking, i shot a whole bunch of images (just about all panos) from this area and I reckon I was happy with just about every frame – thats pretty rare for me btw 😉
So the next time you out punching some light with that digital fang-dangle thing they call a camera or smart phone, consider the pano option and watch the world just open up to you 🙂
Happy freakin' hump day too.
View large or go home 😉
The image is made from 5 horizontal landscape images stitched together in PS, the kicker here is that simply by adjusting the exposure on each frame I could capture that sweet dark area under the foliage and also the relatively bright falls, having a cloudy day certainly helped too.
D750 coupled with Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8 @ 32mm Aperture: f18 and Shutter Speed: varied from 5s to 30 seconds

+Gerard Blacklock I think I saw him!
+Gerard Blacklock​ I hear ya mate! Viewing it on my phone at the moment as my pc is hard at work processing 360 panos from a job I did a few days ago. It sure does open up a whole new world! ☺
Love the detail and perfect exposure .. beautiful ! Do you use an L bracket on the tripod for these Panos ? You have inspired me to have a crack at these. Cheers !

more stuff for VR ? those ones you showed us were very cool!
Thanks +Graeme Andrew
I was recently given a old model manfrotto pano/vr kit this basically has some rails and also a beefy L bracket, which is what I use for these. There are two big advantages that a pano head give you 1) the ability to easily stitch panos in situations with lots of close and faraway subjects 2) makes all other panos just a bit easier since you can simply whack it on and just rotate it around.
The big disadavantage – well for mine anyway.. its f'ing heavy and bulky … still carried it in and out of the Valley of the waters tho!
hope that helps a bit 🙂
+Gerard Blacklock​ not for VR though I could turn them into VR easily enough. It was a job for a caravan park, a tour for Google Maps – they don't have a VR option on there at the moment. Check out Moss Vale Village Caravan Park on Google Maps. 😉
+Gerard Blacklock Thanks .. seems like another bit of kit for me to research and spend the hard earned dollars on .. 🙂 Cheers
