lovely shot!
just one thing, the two flowers in the foreground... one of them has a ghost attached to it, might want to clone it out in ps

shockinh really. 
hey, create an account over at beansprouts www.twobeds.com/upload and you can upload upto 32mb files - because at the moment that's a bit painful to look at in places, it's a nice shot just the presentation lets it down.

Hi, I like the shot and I'd be interested to know:
How many shots did you stitch together?
Did you take each shot in portrait or lanscape mode?
Which stitching program did you use?
Did you have any difficulties panning with your tripod? (care to name it?)
Was it Verrrrry Difficult?
I've not read up on HDR so I hope I haven't made a fool of my self by asking these questions.
I've never done a panoramic shot before but I've just bought a panoramic head so I can set the nodal point etc, I won't be able to use if for a few days until I get a tripod (your recommendation ?) and any advise would be welcome.

Hi mate thanks for the interest
It was taken with a D50 and Kenlock 2000 tripod. They are a bit old school, not the smallest tripod even when folded down but they are pretty robust. They can be picked up on fleabay for pretty cheap.
I took 6 frames, 3 shots each (for the HDR effect) so 18 shots in total all lanscape, at 18mm using the 18-55mm kit lens.
Panorama Factory was the tool used to stitch them together after using photomatix for the tone mapping. If you are intersted in HDR check out cykey's guide here.
It wasnt very difficult, just time consuming and knowing which of the 18 photos needed to be in the right place at the right time. As broadband mentioned I have a bit of ghosting so I must have overlapped those two photos a bit too much but apart from that it was pretty easy, most of all it was fun
Hope that helps, good luck with your first panorama. Give us a shout if you get into any difficulties, E-mail in trust
