Old bridge

Old bridge · 01:23 AM

Set up the camera on a nodal slide as i only had the width of the road plus about 2 meters. Shot a series of 9 frames and stitched them together with Image Composite Editor. The resulting Tiff file was too big for my computer to edit so thank God settings were pretty good. Cropped and converted image to Jpeg with GIMP

But sure to embed the photo in your post; your submission isn't complete until you do so. Feel free to let me know if you need any help with that

Reposted by request, and my apologies to the moderators.

Old bridge in Brownlow Hill NSW.i only had the width of the road plus about 2 meters between me and the bridge. Shot with a 50mm f1.4 @f11 on a Pentax K5iis mounted on a nodal slide. Focused the camera on the closest point then switched to manual focus. Metered several points in the shot for exposure, took a guess and met the body to manual exposure. Shot a series of 9 frames and stitched them together with Image Composite Editor. The resulting Tiff file was too big for my computer to edit so thank God settings were pretty good.

Looks good! However, for the purposes of this contest I'm afraid that stitched images aren't being considered composites. You do have the opportunity to upload a different photo until February 3rd. Sorry about that, and good luck!
