[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 638180, member: 16749"] This was probably my most challenging photograph. This mural is in the north hallway of the [URL="http://www.goweca.com/"]WECA[/URL] building. I estimate it to be around 120 to 150 feet long. The hallway is probably about ten feet wide, so I was not able to get very far back from the mural. With my stock 18-55mm zoomed all the way out to 18mm, and the camera turned on its side, I was barely able to get back far enough to take in the full height of the mural. I started at the west end, and took total of twenty-nine pictures at four-foot intervals, working eastward. I used [URL="http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/ice/"]Microsoft ICE[/URL] to stitch them together. The resulting image was about 387 megapixels in size— 69707×5549 pixels—which was much larger than my computer could comfortably work with, leading to some serious performance issues. It took me several hours to do some simple edits and adjustments that would have taken only minutes with a more reasonably-sized image.
