HOW TO CREAT A PANORAMA WITH PHOTOSHOP PHOTOMERGE

HOW TO CREAT A PANORAMA WITH PHOTOSHOP PHOTOMERGE

These days you don’t need a special camera to create awesome panoramic photographs. With Photoshop CS using Photomerge makes the process quick and easy. Photomerge was created especially for panoramic photography. The process itself is really quite easy but the results of the merge will be depend on the layout and image source quality. The Photomerge feature permits the selection of images intended for automatic panoramic Photomerge and it also allows for manual arrangements.



Since your final photo depends on the quality of the source images it is necessary to make note of some tips when shooting scenic photographs. These tips include:

  • Use manual exposure when shooting pictures. Merging the pictures later on will be difficult if different exposures per shot are used.
  • Try to keep the camera as steady as possible when shooting. If you can, use a tripod to steady the camera.
  • Keep a long distance between the camera and the subject, especially when working with landscapes. Chances of parallax are greater when objects are too close to the camera.



Instructions using Photoshop CS Photomerge:-

Follow these step-by-step instructions to come up with great panoramic images using Photoshop CS Photomerge:

  • Open several images of a single scenery in Photoshop CS.
  • Go to the File option, the select Automate, and then go to Photomerge. This will open the Photoshop dialog box.
  • Check that the images you want to merge are in the dialog box.
  • Next check the Attempt to Automatically Arrange Source Images box and then select Ok.
  • The program will then automatically select the images one by one, and attempt to merge them into one panoramic photo. If your photos don’t quite match you may get an error because the program cannot merge the images automatically. If this happens don’t panic. It is still possible to arrange the images manually.
  • If an errors does occurs, integrate the image or images that were not merged by pulling that image or the images from the top window into the panorama and arranging to the desired position. Photoshop CS will then integrate the image into the panorama automatically.
