Panoramas

These panoramic shots were constructed by combining multiple photographs — stitched together using panoramic stitching software.

Many of these images were made using PanaVue ImageAssembler (and also a little bit of tweaking in Photoshop ). PanaVue ImageAssembler is awkward to use, and only supports linear panoramas — but this software offers a level of manual control that still gets me using it when all other options fail.

I've more recently been using Microsoft's Image Composite Editor , which stitches panoramas completely automatically. Just tell it which photos to use, and it does the rest: automatically arranges, warps and blends each photo to fit. Very easy!

TrailPixie.net has some good tips on panoramic photography.
