Panorama Photo

... very mysterious!!

BR Gerhard.

Two or only a few frames are sometimes absolutely enough. Here, the alternative would have been to shoot a three-row megapixel pano with maybe two dozen frames. Would this result in a better picture??

When stitched from only two photos, it still constitutes a "real" pano in my terms. I would personally prefer a minimal inclusion of the disturbing elements you mention in both sides. Not because it would be more pretty, but because it would sort of frame it or give a beginning and an end. KR Jan.

Non ci crederai, ma questa mattina ero al Castello di Pergine.

Christoph: maybe too many rows and pixels are not for me... That day, I finished work in Pergine at 17 and I had to be there again at 21. Hence, I had four hours at disposal to do what I intended: to reach by bicycle (with camera and tripod on it) the last settlements of the Val dei Mocheni, at more than 1600 m. During the trip I took somewhat like one hundred shots, typically 30 sec each, which accounts for 50 minutes pure exposure!! I mean, pixels come not completely for free, and the more of them you collect on a single place, the less places you visit...
Jan: it is interesting for me to see how your idea is different from mine. Given the conditions, which prevented me from including the whole massif, I tried to maximize the contrast between the incompleteness of the skyline and the self-containedness of the castle mass. I was so convinced, that I cut off everything else already on the place. Only later, here at the screen, materialized the far light... as we say in Italy: between two contenders, it is the third the one who enjoys!
Giuseppe: pensa, io che lavoro a Pergine sono entrato nel castello l'ultima volta nel 2005, e neanche per il castello in sé, ma per fare un accompagnamento al pianoforte...

Bravissimo

Bewundernswert.
