how did you proceed ? Did you do Pano treatment first or HDR first ?

Good question Weevil. I always do the HDRs first then stitch. I've not tried it the other way. I think there would be major alignment issues if you stitched 5 panos then tried to merge them as HDRs. This one was 6 sets of 5 shot brackets shot at 12mm in portrait orientation. It's a huge view squeezed into 1 photo. I'm not terribly happy with it and will probably reprocess it at some point.

Great thanks for the info ! Looking forward to see any improvement ...

Aiming for the cloudscape diminished the impact of the mountains. I need to get closer and see what I can do.

Architecture pano is a little tricky. To get this perspective and nothing in the way, of this building you have to be quite close. 6 upright images stitched. Pentax-M 28mm f/2.8 on a K-5.

Larger size

An 8 portrait image merge of last night's sky.

Thank you! In 2008 the building was elected as the 2nd most beautiful city hall in Sweden.

A panoramic shot of the border between two neighbors Canada & USA at Windsor & Detroit.
The challenge was trying to get the buildings straight as possible and keeping the river/horizon level while shooting hand held, on a ship, moving away from the subject
