Ullswater Panorama

Thanks Enrique

 

It's in the North West of England, close enough to Scotland for you to be able to see Scotland in the second shot (if you look hard enough in the distance!)

I only did the scans at 8 bit and 1333 dpi, to prevent the software completely falling over, but, yes, with six shots making up the second one, there's plenty to look at :)

These are nice Andy.

My first introduction to a Panorama was done by a friend who took one of the castle in France(The one the board game is named after) When my tripod arrives I too will have a go. So I might be asking you for advice.

Regards

Rob

One word is enough to sum up my opinion: Wow! The vista is simply stunning, and I feel transported into the scene - almost feeling the grass beneath my feet. Thanks for posting it.

May I ask what panning base are you using on your tripod?

Jim,

 

I use the patented "Barton Swivel Hip" panorama head. It's hard work walking up there with just your camera, sandwiches and (in this weather) sufficient water to prevent you going crispy round the edges, without lugging a tripod up there too ;) Although, I do use a monopod walking pole from Leki for these strolls.

 

For shots like these, it's easy enough to see a horizon, and therefore to keep the plane roughly correct.

That must take practice, all the same. I must try it with the R8+DMR on the vista from the Cob at Porthmadog when we get a clear enough day.

What 'stiching' programme did you use?
