12/24 sunset panorama
I'm still working on this one:
http://flickr.com/photos/64853284@N00/335613306/ I'd love feedback, comments, etc. I'm also looking for recommendations for printers for panoramic prints.

Nice - I would use an ND grad to let you pull up a bit of detail on the ground. Where was it taken? I use ezprints.com for huuuuge panoramas. I printed this one at 12" tall, full length (up to 60"). http://trupin.smugmug.com/gallery/2114953/1/109368498 |

I've been printing panoramas on an Epson R1800 with 4", 8.3" and 13" roll papers. The length limit for user defined paper sizes is 129". I usually prefer sunrises such as: http://dbdimages.smugmug.com/gallery/1486688/1/71171153 At a 10:1 aspect ratio it can't be printed to 13" height and fit within 129". But I don't ignore sunsets: http://dbdimages.smugmug.com/gallery...21/1/100550973 Late sunsets are tough because there can be an extreme range of brightness from side to side (or center to sides) as well as vertically. It helps to shoot raw to maintain as much dynamic range as possible. Dale B. Dalrymple http://dbdimages.com |

Sweet! I use www.colormailer.com for panoramic prints - had a 160cm by 40cm done and was really pleased with the quality. Cheers, ink |

Nice - Thanks. I'm glad you like it! I've made some further edits (thanks for your suggestions): http://www.flickr.com/photos/64853284@N00/336301857/ I would use an ND grad I'll try that someday. I wasn't able to try that on 12/24 because: 1) I don't own a ND filter. 2) We took off to take these photos on the spur of the moment and barely got to the coast in time. We didn't have time to even grab a tripod, just took our cameras and spare CF cards and kept our finger's crossed that we'd get there in time. If I'd had a tripod with me I probably would have taken more panoramas. 3) My sweetie had my wide(r) 24-70 lens, while I was shooting with my 70-200 telephoto. I only thought about getting a panorama near the end. I have a lot more that are just sunset/waves/beach. Here's one of his shots with the 24-70: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kirkbrooks/334899954/ to let you pull up a bit of detail on the ground. I played with the RAW converter and in Photoshop (using layers and a layer mask with a gradient to lighten the foreground) to get more detail in the foreground without blowing out the highlights in the sunset. There's only a tiny bit of actual "ground" - the dark sand on the left. The rest is all waves. Where was it taken? Half Moon Bay, California. We are in San Carlos, about 30 minutes away. I use ezprints.com for huuuuge panoramas. I printed this one at 12" tall, full length (up to 60"). http://trupin.smugmug.com/gallery/2114953/1/109368498 Thanks for the tip - I forgot that EZPrints does panoramas. jc -- "The nice thing about a mare is you get to ride a lot of different horses without having to own that many." ~ Eileen Morgan of The Mare's Nest, PA |

Thanks! jc I've not yet tried it, but I notice that OfficeMax and Staples offer large format printing - up to about 3x4 feet. |
