My First Panorama


I didn't do too awfully bad with this picture of Cloud's Rest and Half Dome (right), considering I didn't level my camera and tripod or lock in the exposure controls. So, I just took an hour of well-spent time to attempt to correct for all those mistakes. I replaced the sky with a pixel color I had plucked out of the picture. It took awhile to manually paint out the groups of pixels that didn't get selected. I also tried to crop out the most glaring of "seams" that didn't quite line up correctly. You can still see them if you look for them. I'm also seeing a little more touch-up work where the mountains meet the sky.
All in all, it's a promising technique I'll have to try again.
