Thanks, I use the automerge in Photoshop CS4 for that..
I am still learning the whole panorama thing and I will do a revised version of this since the left of the picture is uninteresting.
This is 3 frames only so its not quite "huge" but I am getting an oldschool 17mm prime for my 5D next week perfecto optics so then I should get REAL width. this image was 3 frames @28mm
What did you use to shoot your pano?

Yes, I tend to shoot with auto white balance (and always RAW, never jpeg)... and make further adjustments if needed. There's nothing very 'scientific' about the way I shoot. A lot of the time I bracket a few shots, to make sure one is exposed about right (snow can be difficult to expose for, IMO)...
Saltonstall...

One useful tip (which you may be doing already) is to tilt your camera to portrait rather than landscape (turn your camera 90 degrees, not a mode on the camera!). This way you can way more vertical pixels. I've been doing it for awhile and it makes the photos even better.
Thanks, i have done it before but not on this shot... we will see how my next one turns out with a 17mm :d
Boy i've been lurking off and on for quite a while, starting my New Year's resolution early to shoot more and share more. Here is from a trip to the park earlier. Too bad I wasn't really paying attention to what the camera was doing and most of the shots didn't turn out.
Cropped and sharpened a bit.

Great all-around photo! Framing, focus, DOF, contrast and lighting all hit the mark.

Yellow Painted Door
Excellent color and texture. One of those photos that I just say "I like that".

I took one of my photos from a summer series and used Corel Painter to develop an image with "painted" look. You lose some of the detail of the brush work at this scale, but I thought I'd share it anyway. It took about 5 hours with a tablet to do the brush work over the 36x60" image and then on to photoshop to clean up some mistakes. I may never paint again... jk, but it does present some possibilities for making posters and large prints.
Happy Holidays to all. Santa brought me a tripod so as soon as I set it up I tried out a couple of techniques for the first time..
Shot this evening as a test for an upcoming magazine assignment, have never used Delta 3200, straight from the scan, no toning, no photoshop, no sharpening....Man Rodinal brings out acuteness, love that developer.

5 hours well spent
christmas can be a depressing time.
Aww.Great capture.
I agree, excellent job!

I had Painter 11 on my wish list just for this sort of work. Very nice and love the feel to it. Just look at it like five hours was learned for the next one. Keep them coming
Wow this really jogs the memory banks. For the young folk out there, Rodinal is a single-use developing fluid for black and white film. It's the oldest photographic product still in use. The perfectionists in my photo classes would use nothing but Rodinal. Delta 3200 has a Flickr pool with 955 members. If I had a wet darkroom, I'd still be shooting B&W.
Oh, nice shot. What is the theme of the project?

I learned on this...but mine was older....
