Hi Chris, very interesting way of stitching a pano. Not necessarily flawless, but a very different yet appealing way, and maybe the stitching isn't the difficulty, but it sure isn't easy to arrange the photos. Excellent display of creativity and a great way to show there are other ways to present panoramic formatted images.
Cheers,
Hugo

Can you tell me which flaws you've found, as I'm thinking of making a series of thes panoramas. If you mean the pictures all have different exposures, I am aware of that and although I could have corrected it, I decided to leave it to make the separate images clearer.

Hi Chris, Think I didn't phrase myself properly. I used "flaws" as in the seams between the individual images and the mismatch in the overlap - compared to the seamless stitches you see so often. But as you obviously didn't intend to create such a seamless stitch, I shouldn't have called them "flaws". I like that idea, and I think it's refreshing and creative. You don't see this too often, and that's what creates at least a part of the appeal, if you see what I mean.
The thing that make it strong is that some photos overlap perfectly (read: seamles), whilst others have a much more noticeable difference, as you say. Maybe you could use that to your advantage (even more so than you already did) by increasing that tonal difference, and perhaps mix in a few shots taken from a different PoV and maybe even focal lenght to emphasise certain details. I think emphasising the "chequerboard" approach might make the impact of such a panorama even stronger..... Hope this explains what I meant.
Not an easy challenge to create this, but I rather like it, I'll have to keep this in mind, I bet it can take a few hours to select the images to create a very well balanced overview. Maybe in that aspect you could gain some, but you've already nailed it pretty closely...
Cheers,
Hugo

OK, thank you for clearing that up. I will try your suggestions of different PoV and details. This version was just a trial as I made 3 for my photography exams, unfortunately they're not digital and about 2 metres long so I can't scan it. Thank you for the advice!

It's actually shot in the Harlequin shopping Centre in Watford. The name was a complete coincidence.
