Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Hi all

Thought I would share this panorama taken the other night from the end of North Wharf. I apologise for the width of the photo if
I reduce it down in size any more it was going to loose to much detail. I may yet cut some of the left hand side off before I get it printed.

All comments welcome.

Thanks

Thanks Alpha_7

You will probably laugh when I tell you that I currently use Canons Photostich program to do the hard work, it came free with my Canon powershot and does a fairly good job. I then gave it a tickle in Photoshop and added a frame.

I guess you are probably looking at somewhere between 180 - 200 deg view with the camera located straight out from the right hand side of Telstra Dome.

I am currently looking for a good pano program for the Macintosh so if anybody can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

Certainly no laughs from my Paul, whatever gets the job done I say. I use Panorama factory but only as it's the first one I tried, I liked it and stuck with it. Not sure if it has a Mac version. Thanks for clearing up the angle, I've never been to Melbourne so have no idea what the geography and cityscape is like, by the looks of it, pretty stunning..
