>>2839934It's a bit of a lengthy process, but I'll try to lay it out step by step.
1. figure out what exposure will work best for your scene when you take into account the sky, ground, etc.
2. Figure out where you want the boundaries of your image to be, Top, bottom, sides.
3. Make sure you keep your exposure locked for all the photos (as you would with any other normal panorama)
4. Keep with a specific pattern when you start teking your series of photos (anywhere from 3-100, or however many you need). Example, starte from top left, take photos from left to right, overlapping each image by about 30-40% for each image. Move the camera down by a small amount (overlapping by 30% still) to take the next row of photos.
5. Open photos in raw converter of your choice. Do the edits you want, but keep in mind you need to apply the EXACT same edits to each photo in the mosaic.
this step will vary depending on your software.
6. if you're going to open in photoshop, simply open up each edited image in photoshop, and use the photomerge function to merge and blend all the images together
6-2. If you're using a third party program like ptgui, simply export Tiffs from your raw converter and open them up in your program.
7. Optional, you can re open your finalized image in photoshop and do final adjustments in the camera raw filter (gradients, horizon straightening, vignette)
I used to display in a gallery in Texas, but I have since moved out to California, and I strictly just do shows now, rather than showing at a gallery.
I'll be monitoring this thread if you need any clarification
