Richmond: Night Panoramas
November 20th, 2007 by FweebOkay, so I’m no professional photographer, but I needed some decent-quality panoramic photographs for a Blender compositing tutorial that I’m creating for CmiVFX. I don’t have a panoramic camera and my camera isn’t one of those nifty new ones that will create panoramas for me. However, this is where the open source world saves the day yet again. There’s an excellent panorama stitching program called hugin available for Linux (as well as Windows and Mac) that will stitch together a series of photos into a nice panorama for you. It can even automatically create control points to help with stitching.
Anyhow, they’re not perfect, but I’ve had a lot of fun shooting and creating these images, so I figured I’d share a few of them with you. And I might even make more in the future! Click on the images below for larger versions.
