waves and sky

[donnnnnny]

I have been doing panos now since bought my nn5 3 months ago. interestingly, and silly me, its impossible to line i up wave action in panos even if the waves are very small . you live and learn

Do you shot well in manual mode ? all exposures and focus in manual mode and setup once for all pano shots ? no change between shots ?

Hi,

it is always the same problem with waves, specially when you need longer exposures. With an overlap of 30 % you can try to get them fixed together in photoshop with brush tool and different transparencies. Take off a little bit of both sides to fix it together.

This really takes time. Might be, you would have been better off using a higher ISO to get shorter times to shoot the picture, then there is not such a great difference in the waves.

yes shoot manual, and change for each shot depending on light
cheers don

and change for each shot depending on light

That's why you have waves that way, keep exact same settings for everything between each shot

Hello donnnnnny,

I agree that waves can be a problem but don't let it put you off!

I don't know whether my technique would be considered "proper", but this panorama was made by shooting quickly with a 50% overlap (I note what is at the centre of the image then the next image has this feature at the extreme left of the viewfinder) and stitched in PanoramaStudio (http://www.tshsoft.de/en/index.html).
