New England Foliage

Recently I was able to visit my parents in New England. While I was there I took a few pictures from the outside of my parents house. I've done this many times before, but never have been able to stitch the images back together again once I made it home. Photoshop to the rescue. Photoshop made it ridiculously easy to align the images and blend the colors. As proof I present this:

Are you stitching these by hand? One of my coworkers did a post comparing a couple of stitching utilities. Unfortunately, he wasn't happy with anything he tested. You can read his post at http://maisonbisson.com/blog/post/11967/panorama-stitchers-calico-vs-doubletake

It's good to hear that everything is going well. You should drop Karl and Adam and I a line the next time you visit NH.

It's actually a new feature in Photoshop CS3. It's auto align and auto blend. Here's an article that shows it in action [link]

Neato. I have access to CS3, but I haven't really had time to work with it. I've spent the last couple years using The Gimp when I need to muck about with an image. This will have to go in my bag of tricks since the HP software won't stitch more then 5 images together.

The GIMP has a distinctly unpolished feel on both windows and mac. The mac installation is absurdly difficult by Mac standards, and that's after you decide which of the 4 installation you want to use.

From what I can tell you'll need a plugin to use do the same thing The GIMP. Perhaps you meant to say "Pandora 4 Eva"?
