Paula @phillyphotos mentioned using Microsoft ICE (Image Composite Editor) to put panoramas togeher. So I had to try it. Using a monopod I took 3 photos to stitch together. It is hard to see where the stitching actually occurred, but I felt it did not crop very well. The photos were taken at f9, 1/250 sec.

I had this same problem and am now taking a top row and a bottom row for the seaming, since that works really well. I can then have a bit more room for cropping the black edges out.
@phillyphotos Thank you Paula, I will try taking 9 photos next time and see what it does. @kerristephens Thank you Kerri, I liked what the software did do. @bkbinthecity Thank you Brian, it was fun to try @marilyn Thank you Marilyn, I will continue practicing
Hmm, I didn't have this issue when using the same software. I know one tip I was given was to shoot in portrait mode (ie: turn camera on it's side) to leave more room for the program to work with? Don't know that it would sort the croppage issue though.
@myhrhelper Thank you Kathy, I know I could have cropped, but I wanted to know was that normal @sangwann Thank you Dione, I feel it gives a deeper view. @peterdegraaff Thank you Peter, the scalloped look is interesting @westcoastwallis Thank you Paula, portrait does help a lot
