Excellent. One of the best shots I've seen lately.

Excellent...

What software did you use for this?

This is HDR, the software i used is Photomatix Pro

Clock tower at the Royal Naval Dockyard in Bermuda.

10 Exposures in vertical orientation
Manfrotto Tripod
Stitched with Calico and tweaked with Capture NX and PS CS3.

Wow great job.

Thanks for the feature everyone!

Great image. I love the look of small Spanish towns.

That's really cool

belle perspective!!

Excellent shot. My only thought was that I wish it had more contrast. Just making the blacks deeper. I wish I could visit a place like this. Amazing.

Yes very nice, nice stitching. Also agree with Jason, could use a bit of levels work done to it but overall very nice.

big shot!!

sometimes it about being in the right spot at the right time and you were there! Very cool shot!

Superb wide shot!

I was waiting for this to be featured in panorama as well. Should have been the first. Excellent shot.

Nice one. Did he pose for you? Or are you the beneficiary of a great seat?

Great seat =)

this one's really great!

Thanks. I love what you can do handheld with a wide angle

actually, this is just one shot. I took this photo about 3 years ago on a vacation and didn't even think to take multiple shots.

Do you use Photoshop? So typically to create a panorama, you can use any lens (really serious photographers prefer telephotos since they have minimal distortion, but I have several from a midrange zoom). Then you use Photoshop (not the best, but lots already own it) and they stitch the images into a panoramic. When you shoot the images you usually lock focus, exposure, and everything else so the images look identical when stitched. As long as nothing moves across the image borders you are fine. Oh and typically you have about 20-40% overlap between images. That's it in a nutshell. Hope that helps.

With all that being said, you have a great image. Did you use a circular polarizer. It would have been helpful to bring more contrast into the sky. But beautiful area.

Jason: no, I don't have photoshop, i've only been using the iPhoto application on my MAC, thanks for the help i'm sure there is a similar application on my computer. I've actually discovered a panorama setting on my current camera that helps with taking photos so i'm going to test it out soon. To your question about a circular polarizer, i'm going to show my photography ignorance and tell you I don't know. I am only but a college student who enjoys taking photography and I really havn't had alot of time to actually study up on photography, that is why I joined Vazaar to hopefully get good insight from other photographers. Saying all that I don't know what a circular polarizer is, but I can tell you did try to increase the contrast and for some reason (and it's only happened in this photo) it didn't help the sky, it brought out more color in the green but not the blue, I can't explain. Thank you so much for your help! That's why i'm here!!

j'adore ce panorama. on sent l'immensité dans cette photo. bravo

Noah,

I'm glad you said you didn't know. So a circular polarizer is a filter that you attach to the end of your lens. There is a lot of science related to optics that goes into how it does it, but to put it simply, it would darken your skies and increase contrast where the image is looking hazy... Here is a simulated shot from a circular polarizer

I'm from Holland, I've more like this... :)

The usual stunning use of what some might call starkness. I would like to see the right side cropped a bit to put the main focus on the windmill.

I disagree with the crop idea. I prefer how it is. Great shot. I really like the post processing.

The processing is beautiful; the image is excellent.
