Cloudscapes

Another from yesterday, 6 shots stitched together. I used the RAW files instead of the jpegs but didn't edit before stitching. The result was a little washed out so I added a Nik filter. Should I have used the jpegs or edited each RAW file before I started? Any advice gratefully received - would be v interested to know how others process panos.
Clever girl, it’s nicely done. No word from my favourite shop yet...

@fbailey just phoned. One that had been invoiced Monday arrived today so it looks like tomorrow, they’ll phone and let me know. I didn’t intend going to town today - heavy rain- so no loss. Xx

Such good perspective and lines and patterns and reflections in the wet sand.

A lovely scene of sea , sand and sky in a beautiful colour palette - fav

The colors and your filter make it beautiful picture!

I had a play recently with putting a few shots together. I shot in manual with the same setting for each photos in a series. Then I used the Canon software on the individual RAW files, but made sure I did exactly the same to each photo. (That is easy in that program because you can easily copy the recipe to each photo).
Then I merged the photos in Photoshop and cropped it a little.
It became a long panorama, but I never posted it on 365.

Fabulous capture...fav

You did a wonderful job with this. I often stitch or stack images together, with the use of Lightroom I tend to edit one then select that they are all edits are synced but either way you did a great job. Fav

Haven't ventured into stitching or stacking photos yet.

so fantastic

Fantastic tones. I do not edit the raws before stitching them, unless there is too much difference in exposure. PS usually manages the stitching process very well. Easy fav, btw

Lovely bright tones. Well done.

Fabulous sense of scale, space, depth

Lovely setting and shot
September 30th, 2020  
Wow this is beautiful!

I only tried this once - and have totally forgotten how to do it, so apologies no help from me. Which ever way you did, turned out seamlessly and a resultant great composition. Love the clouds and all that golden glistening.

Nice shot

I love cloud pictures

Gorgeous

I think you've done a great job, I've used Lightroom for putting together panoramic images and it does all the hard work for you, thankfully!

Love the reflections on the wet sand... the color is so nice and warm. Fav

I tend to do the stitching prior to editing to ensure consistent results. Lightroom and Photoshop do admirable jobs, esp the latest versions of each. The results you have here a quite gorgeous regardless of how your processed it!!

Beautiful reflections

It’s hard to say. I really like this one. It has really nice details.

You lost me at stitching LOL..... whatever you did, it is looking darn good!

A beautiful image, captures the feeling of a lonely windswept beach.

it is a beautiful seascape and cloudscape felicity

Lovely shot. I like the slightly muted colours and the reflections are fab. I haven't done any stitched panoramas so it's interesting reading everyone's processes.

@ingrid01 @bubblequeen @domenicododaro @inthecloud5 @aikiuser @jgpittenger Thanks very much to all of you, that's really useful. Normally I would have processed the RAW files individually had the sun been behind me but the sun was on the rhs (and I was being lazy)! Thanks again for your input.
