I made two attempts, well actually three but two of them were stitching oriented. This one seems to be the better one. I have little experience with panoramas... I think I can count number of times I tried to produce one with fingers on just one of my two hands. I should also say it is rather different "seeing" the image before I am at home in front of my PC doing the stitching... I think one can say I am getting spoiled with instant review ability of my camera. -- Boris

Hi Boris, You live half way across the country from Haifa. It's difficult for you to get there. I have to ask: did you take numerous shots of this scene with slightly different framing, different lenses, standing in different place? Just curious if this was the best one.

Re: PESO - Haifa Bay Panorama (and also trip report)
Hi! I'd like to see more sky at the expense of some of the foreground, and I would shamelessly clone out the mostly dead tree that is so unfortunately placed. Nice shot in most every other way. Your stitching is much better than mine. Unfortunately the sky was rather dull gray-blue-cyan uniform mass... Unfortunately we live 2 hours drive from Haifa (half across the country), so couldn't go anytime I wanted... I should remember your suggestions next time we're there and sky is more interesting. I am too lazy to clone out that dead tree... May be next time the Haifa zoo people will simply cut it for me ;-). As for stitching - you don't see it on this shot, but on full size image there're some strange discontinuities on the sky... Anyone can help me with overcoming this in PTStitcher? Boris

Re: PESO - Haifa Bay Panorama (and also trip report)
Boris, I like what you've done here, but I find the foreground somewhat boring. Too much of it and not very interesting. Perhaps if taken with a longer lens...
