Nice to see a challenge, I have missed them the last couple weeks. This one sounds interesting and definitely a challenge. I have never mended photos before. Hope I can figure out how to! lol

OK! First and second attempt failed. I found out I should be shooting pictures vertically not horizontal. This way the picture isn't sqaushed height wise if using more than three pictures. Also I had camera set in aperature mode. That caused each picture to have different lighting. Round three tonight.

Newbie here... I undertsand your assessment on aperture mode... curious why one would not shoot horizontal?? It makes the "panorama" more wide by a long shot but does that not represent what a panorma is?

Well, this was my first try. I only had my mono-pod. Which only shoots horizontal.. Thats why when I got home to use the program I had noticed my mistake. Also I forgot to change my settings from my previous shooting. I never really read up on pan shots before. So, I did some research and found out the right way. Live and learn. I have a great spot to shoot from here and I should get a decent pic tonight.

Marcel, it is a great challenge! I have not even had my camera a week... It will be fun, no matter what. I have never done a panorama ever before and have not done anything with b&w since maybe 1980!
For me, just finishing the challenge with be satisfying and a learning experience!
