it's all in the editing

For those that have asked about some of my 'larger than life' photos, rest assured that it's not because my camera is super-expensive or has special powers :) It's all in the post-editing.


I took these 11 photos of a huge tree beside a building (yes, I repeated one to fill in the small squares of the mosaic) and used autostitch to combine them into one beautiful scene. Click here for the autostitch download.and/or more information. 



Of course, the finished scene is not perfect, so I cropped the shot to include what I want to have in the final photo.

  3. These are great tips - I'd never heard of auto-stitch. How fun. And your tree photos are so pretty and green, unlike the ones I showed on my blog! Thanks for stopping by.

  4. Love what you did with the tree, especially the last picture. That must have been fun.
