Paresh Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I think I remembered a video on how to make them more vertical & not as long. When I crop to opaque, they just look too long. I shoot in portrait mode & zoomed in but in post they still don't look good to me. thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so a search of YouTube provides a lot of videos on it. Brenizer Method of Portrait Photography If not could you provide a screenshot showing what you're having problems with?

Paresh Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 I'll take a look, I'm not familiar with that method. Here's a jpeg after stitching, before any other adjustments. Is that how panoramas are supposed to look?? Thanks for yr reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just crop slightly, and leave some transparent area. Instead, use patch tool, clone tool, healing brush etc. to artificially restore missing parts in the edges. Normally there is some sky or ground, simple job.

Looks great. I would replace the repeated pattern on the right side, it’s a bit obvious. Maybe select a portion from middle/left, mirror it. or do a full sky replacement.

Paresh Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 Right! This was just after stitching, before any further adjustments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible to create your own, but you'll probably get better results by cloning, inpainting etc. Quote AP, AD & APub user, running Win10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
