    This is just an experiment.

    I was reading about shooting panoramas. A lot of people that I read, suggested shooting in vertical or portrait mode, but I thought to myself, what if I don't want that much sky?

    Looks good Steve.

    HessleHiker,

    I use a real basic program called Autostitch.
    I've tried others like Gimp, but found them to be too complicated for the few times I do panoramas.

    Steve, if you're on Windows or Linux, I recommend you try XPano. It's a relatively new, and it's very simple and quite quick.

    Almost surreal, like an hd maquette, beautiful stuff.

    You're obviously wiser than I was.
    The main problem was the AF, which is one of the reasons I fancy trying a more advanced bridge-camera someday.

    The Canon SX50HS was also weak there but I'm sure something like a Sony Cyber-shot RX10 IV does a very good job getting everything in focus fast as its reknowned for its image quality and AF tracking capabilities. The downside is gonna be the pricing as this is as top of the line as bridge camera's go, even used they go for a premium.

    That Sony seems to be the king of bridges for wildlife usage. The only complaint I've heard about it is it's relatively short zoom.

    Neat! The first is my favourite.
    BWT, I don't think we have any strict time restrictions, I'm sure you could've posted in the current thread.

    Steve,

    Neat photos. I like the first and third best, because you managed to press the trigger at precisely the right time!

    The intention is that the thread to post in is always the latest. You dont have to post in the thread for last week because your photos were taken last week.

    Doing so runs the risk that not all will see your work!

    Keep sending them in!

    Best,

    David
