Its worth trying the lighter/darker colour, luminance, saturation and colour brush options for this. For misalignment visible on staight edges (horizons, power lines, man- made structures) I bend the image using skew. Sometimes content aware fill if there is a piece of the image missing.

How about splitting the project into two parts? Use Save as to save 2 new projects. The first one will be a stitch of the boat only. Mask out all the sea and sky to isolate the boat. Then from the edit menu select Remove all control points from masks. Remove any images that have no boat visible. Align, Save and stitch. In the other, mask out the boat and Remove all control points from masks. Align, Save and stitch The objective is to obtain 2 panos which don't have any obvious seams or misalignments. In an image editor, combine the two images. To get them to fit in the right orientation, you may need to move the boat image around using the Roll pitch yaw adjustment in the Hugin preview pane, and re- stitch. When editing, you may need to clone in some sea to cover gaps. However sea is not somewhere people will notice retouching. > > <cartol...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi John, > > > in fact I use many many ways to blend.
