It was gonna be a play raw, but not at 354mb (tiff)…
it was also a very bad word to put together.
24mm couldnt get it all in and swinging a pano so close gave horrible distortions
Walked the tripod left to right and made the overlaps that way
and because its sunset each shot was 3 exposure brackets
Each bracket was put through HDRMerge and the 8 DNGs brought into darktable, eyeballed the exposure for each and adjusted the black point on each histogram so no dark clipping
Exported as 16 bit tiffs which were stitched in M$ ICE (I know I know but Xpano doesnt play nice with 16 bits and I really wanted all that nice DR)
Stitch brought back into dt for a general tidy up, exposure and colour tweeks
Et viola
and on the way home stopped off for this
Hand held, it aint no Ernest Haas but it has potential…
