A stitch of 8 frames taken just when the sun was rising in the thick clouds. The light lasted barely a few minutes before the whole area was swallowed in fog.

Thoughts welcome.

Both the pictures are very nice... People will be forced to visit these places after viewing... I personally love travelling Smile

but my better half not that much, especially me carrying around my gear... Sad

BTW, I would appreciate if either Akbar or Henk share how the framing to the photos (black and white ones) with your names on it... Is these done on CS4... Some help would be helpful...

Thank you

I have a specific action for the double border framing. After that I increase the size of the canvas, depending on the size of the pano. For consistency, most of the times I reduce the size of the framed ones to 50cm and add 1cm on each side. If I have a title I will increase the bottom with another 1,5cm.
The signature is just another picture, blended in PS.

Thank you for your explanation Henk... But to be honest, I didn't get it as to how this has to be done on PS CS4... May be I am still not there (at that level of knowledge with PS)...

Use PS help, search for 'canvas'.

I also have created an action for the border using the canvas size.

For the signature, I've created a brush. One click of the brush does it.

Kumar, that will be another AED 10. I need the cash for some new gear Laughing
