RiverView Panorama

Large Panorama


Usually when you create a panorama you have to crop the image after it has merged everything together onto a transparent background. Doing so you usually end up cropping off some of the picture that you want to keep. But, not with CS5. Instead you can select that transparent background, modify selection to expand it into the picture about 25 or so pixels, then use Content Aware Fill.


This is a pano of 17 vertical/portrait pictures taken on the boardwalk of RiverView Park, Swansboro NC.

Tim, nice pano. CS5 does such a good job on that content fill, doesn't it? Like you, I often take portrait shots for panos. It helps eliminate some lens distortion. CS5 does a great job of blending, too. I also use PTgui, but sometimes, Photoshop does a better blending of the images.


Many more reasons to own Photoshop. []

Great shot Tim. I was looking at the picture before I read all of your post and was thinking, "Man this place looks familiar?" I have been there. The shots look great stitched together and I bet even better at FULL REsolution from the 17 shots.

My Daughter had here wedding there on a hot August afternoon. It was the first wedding ever there.
I personally believe it would have been more picturesque if it were early morning with the sun rising across the river.
