About I am now in college up here in the smokes and dieing to take some panoramic photos. But, every time I try this is what happens. I have tried everything I can think of. I manually control the time, aperture, and white balance. It still looks basically like this. I really can't figure it out. Please help me.

Oops, tough one!!! My first thought was.... do it manually, but you already did that.... So I can only think of one thing.... before you stitch, try 'leveling' out the differences.... I mean: adjust the levels and brightness so that they look equally dark/light and then stitch... Hope that'll work.... about the shot: great view and nice panorama... too bad about the 'seams'...

You need to lock the exposure so you get the same settings on each image. Also try taking the shots vertically so you don't get the distortion. It will mean more images but a better result.

also, when stitching the photos together, cut the edges off, because that is where you get distortion and colour differences. That means quite a bit of overlapping and more photos, but it helps. Also, keep the horizon in the middle of the frame. This is not great compositionally, but it also minimizes distortion that prevents easy stitching. You can crop later.

Cheers!

Hi Michael,
Thank you for your recent comment. I really appreciate it!
I came to take a look at your portfolio and found this shot. It's a really nice photo if the shots transitioned well. I know nothing about stitching, but I took it into PS and by a combination of cloning, selecting the sky (in different stages) and using brightness/shadows and highlights and even some levels I came up with this. Keep in mind that this is a really quick job. It could be done much better. You have probably already resolved the issues, since it's been three weeks ago, but I just wanted to give it a go. What do you think?
Kathy
