Hi all. This is my first post to BNP. I have attempted to post a photomerge of three images using CS3, I hope that it is viewable. The images used to produce this file were shot with my relatively new Nikon D200, 400 f3-5 EDIF manual focus + TC14B at ISO 100 - 1/1600sec. I found that I had to crop the three images down in front and in back of the bird and then use the interactive setting of photomerge in order to get it to work. I used a tipical workflow (shadow&highlights, levels,curves,hue&sat.,selectivecolor). I sharpened with Nik Sharpener Pro Inkjet set for Display. Dan Brown, Sacramento, CA
Hi Dan and welcome to BPN. Nice first post and a different type of pano for this forum, a bird pano. I do these - perhaps I should post one. Anyway, I am guessing that is the same bird in each image walking forward.
Your merging looks great - I can see no issues there. You have good head-angle on the last pose but the two in front are facing a bit away from you. I would have preferred a bit more room between the second and third (bill on third close to rump on second). I love the grass in the water - a real nice graphic touch to the image. The room in front of the first bird just right as is the room behind the one in the rear.
