Re: PAW - HorseShoe Bend
I'm a sucker for shots like this. The fact that it is stitched from several images is amazing. I've stood right there, where you made your images, and photographed the exact same scene. Your image is sooo much better than mine! Christian Skofteland [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Link: http://tripodman.smugmug.com/gallery/65384/1/2851282/Large
Re: PAW - HorseShoe Bend
That's a great National Geographic photo. The style seems to be out of favor but I like them. Larry Hodgson wrote: Below is a link to a shot that I made yesterday (Saturday). This is called Horseshoe Bend and is on the Colorado River just below the Glen Canyon Dam in Arizona. This is a world class trout fishing river. The water is crystal clear and cold as it exists the base of the dam. Many people have taken this exact same image, but since it is only 4 hours from my home I thought I would give it a shot. If you look closely you can see some boats and in the full size version (not posted) you can see fishermen in the water. I say Made this image because it is actually from 10 separate images from my *istD with FA 28 lens. I shot in RAW and converted in Photoshop. I stitched together with Panorama Maker 3.0 It was 2 rows 5 wide. Shots were vertical and then rotated during conversion. The resulting image after cropping is 4837x3900 pixels. I also took this shot with my Sigma 14 which just got the entire scene. I was not happy with it because the 14 that I have is one of the first ones and is not very sharp and is low on contrast. With all the discussion lately about full frame sensors and 14 MP sensors and such, this shows what can be done with just 6 MP camera. I know not all subjects can be captured with this technique, but it sure works with landscapes. The saturation was bumped up a little, but this is about what it looks like in person.

Re: PAW - HorseShoe Bend
Larry, I agree with Tom. It's a wonderful shot. I like it so much that I put a copy into the rotation I use for wallpaper. Will you be printing big copies of it for sale? Regards, Bob S.

Re: PAW - HorseShoe Bend
Hi! Need to learn stitching... Need to learn stitching... Well, enough self-mumbling. This is quite amazing. Let's see, it is roughly 20 MP. So it can be enlarged for a wall-sized print and hang there... Then, the only worry would be to avoid the vertigo... Well, my wife just dared suggest to make a carpet out of this image. It is meant as a compliment though. But it the first time I hear such kind of suggestion. I am humbled... Boris
Re: PAW - HorseShoe Bend
Nice shot, Larry. I recently tried Photoshop CS's Photomerge stitcher, and it does look like promising technique. - MCC At 08:27 AM 3/14/2004 -0700, you wrote: I say Made this image because it is actually from 10 separate images from my *istD with FA 28 lens.

Re: PAW - HorseShoe Bend
Hello Larry, This is an amazing shot. I am very partial to the red rock country myself and have enjoyed all your work that you have shared with us. Seeing this makes me want to take a crack at stitching. Could you give a few more details on setting up the shot itself?
