The seafront at Lossiemouth, Scotland. Taken towards the end of Dec '09.
 
Thanks (: The dogs even appeared in a couple of the shots so they were like dog ghosts when i stitched them xD

Looking forward to some nice days soon where i might actually be able to take my time, play with settings and use a tripod!
 
Taken in Dec 2008 while it was snowing, Times Square NYC.

This is my first attempt at a panoramic stitched from 3 photos shot by me. Camera used is Fiji F610 6mp. Also my first proper use of Photoshop CS4.

 
How do you lot get the sky to blend nicely? I get visible "joins" in the sky and my attempts to remove them have been less than successful! It's not always a case of different exposure, it's mainly due to the sky colour being different left to right due to sun position :(

how many photos are you taking and how much of an overlap are you using? Think people have mentioned and 25% overlap should iron out the joins better.
 
About 8 to 10 with a lot more than 25% overlap. As it's just blue tones I guess there is probably a way to fix it in photoshop, I might have a look at other stitching software as well.

edit: Also is everybody using a panorama head? i.e. it lets you pivot about the centre of the lens face? They seem pretty expensive!

Cant say for everyone, but I certainly do on top of the manfrotto 190Proxb.

Nope, nothing flashy, just a focal point as a reference.

Im my Times square scene, I used the 2 flag poles as my reference point. I just then rotated to the left and right keeping the flag poles just in view. That aided my hand stitching of the images.
