PHOTOMERGE!


For our next assignment we will be using 'photomerge' to blend images together. This technique can create panoramic images


Today (Tue/Wed) we will learn the basic PM skills and you will have the long 4 day weekend to shoot on your own. Monday you will need to come to class with 5 good PM (with a minimum of 4 images each).

Show us where you went or what you did. these can be amazing landscapes, cityscapes, scenic shots, interior images, perspective pictures, whatever you see that is intriguing!
  • Each photomerge should be made up of 4 or more images.
  • remember to overlap your images, but not by more than 20%.
  • photomerges are much more successful if you can MANUALLY white balance your camera and even more successful if you can shoot images with your camera in MANUAL EXPOSURE mode thus setting an aperture and shutter setting that is the same for each image. Difficulties arise when exposures change from image to image.
