Tips for great Panoramic Photos
Sometimes, clear lines that separate the images in the panorama may
appear. It is possible to blend the lines so that they disappear.
Select the Advance Blending option located at the right of the
Photomerge window, then select Preview. Inconsistencies in color will
be calculated by the program. At this point, the images will blend
together.
Photoshop will combine all the individual images for your panoramic
into a single layer. If you select the Keep as Layers option it is
easier to edit each image individually. This is a great help if one of
the images is brighter or darker then the other images. You can select
that image in layers and adjust the brightness for just that image. It
is a good idea to save the layers as a .psd file so that you can always
come back and correct any mistakes or make any changes later. It's a
real pain to have to redo everything from scratch just if you made a
mistake or want to change something later.
You can also distort the pictures so that the scene will look like
it is in perspective. Choose the Perspective option on the bottom of
Settings. You can also do this by choosing Set Vanishing Point in the
Photomerge window, then click to an area in the panorama.
Using the Perspective mode can often produce panoramic photos in a
more accurate manner then the Normal mode. The Normal setting usually
does not match the images seamlessly where Perspective does.
You can also use Cylindrical mapping which is where images are projected into a cylinder.
Beautiful panoramic photos are easy to create with Photomerge in
Photoshop CS. Photomerge will make the task a breeze for just about
anyone to produce inspiring and professional-looking images.
