New panorama

mbernholdt · Apr 20, 2019

Did it again, got up at 3 am to go and catch some sunrise shots of Farø bridge in Denmark.

This is from the left: Farø bridge, Farø island, Bogø *** and finally Bogø island in one single frame on one of the most spectacular mornings I have had in a long time.

Still processing images, but not at all disappointed with the first pano from this morning

Very peaceful photo. It would make a great print for a professional’s office.

Well, it is really quite simple.

On the H or H plus (Have no idea of Yuneec other drones) I fly up to frame my shot making sure I have plenty of space on the top and bottom of the main subject, in this case, the bridge and islands. Then I set the camera to shoot a 360 panorama with 8 images.

At home in the studio, I load the images up in Lightroom and select between 4 and 6 images from that pano skipping the 2 or 4 images that are 180 from the subject. After Lightroom have stitched the images I do my post-processing, adjusting light, contrast sharpness to my liking and that's it

Is lightroom a free app? Pardon my ignorance. But I like free because unless I am doing it regularly, I can't justify paying for something that I only do once or twice.

Unfortunately not it is subscription based and is rather expensive. There are free alternatives out there if you search a little on Google.

Check this out using Microsoft ICE...Its Free
after that you could use and photo editing program to enhance the photo.
You will only need to stitch together the horizontal photo layer or set the H to the number of shoots yoouwant to take.

Microsoft ICE is free and may work for you. I have used it for the 18 shot panos. At the top edges there is a mismatch in the stitching. However, it will probably do better with the 8 shot panos.

That's a lovely picture. My hat is off to you. I only wish I could get so good a picture with my poor skills.
