Andrew Williams's picture

GLT Panorama

I have been shooting this scene occasionally for more than thirty years in different seasons and weather. When we moved here, it was wide open. They had just installed the sewer line heading back toward the Perkiomen Creek and downstream to the Oaks processing facility. Over the years, it became quite overgrown until about six years ago, when they cleared it again to replace the line with a more substantial one. Now it is becoming overgrown again.

This panorama is eight vertical shots stitched together in Photoshop. You may notice that the color and brightness change about a third of the way from the left. I was experimenting with my new Urth ND filters, and these were thirty-second exposures (on a tripod, of course.) All eight exposures were identical, so I can only assume that the sun had dropped below the tree line between the individual frames.

Nice experimental photo, Andrew! This is really beautiful. It almost looks like a painting! Hope you are well!

Love the compensation and this qualifies for the October challenge. I agree with Jennifer regarding the paint-like quality,

That's the hard part of panorama with such a wide dynamic range. The shadows and get crushed while keeping the highlights from being blown out. Especially on 180° panoramas!

Hi Andrew, great hearing from you - I was wondering how you were doing.

Great work on this image - I've never had much luck (skill) on panos myself so always appreciate the skill of others.

Hopefully Harry is doing well.......

On my lap at the moment. Time for a walk,
