So I got to do something I hadn’t done in a while and that was teach my method of how to do panoramic shots. On the last day of shooting we went out to Guadalupe State Park and were photographing the Cypress trees in the area. So I set up my equipment just like I instructed the folks on doing and took the shot below. It was a total of 13 images all together and then combined into Photoshop. I did so many captures because I wanted to make sure that there were not going to be in anomalies in the images from too little overlap. I think it turned out looking really sharp and even money says that this will make a great canvas once I get the APC guys to print it for me. There is just one problem…

Should it be in Color???

Or in Black and White???

Let me know what you all think…

Did a quick conversion on this to give it more life.  The greens were a bit faded and I knew going to B&W would revitalize it, so I dropped it into Silver Efex Pro 2 and the result is below.  The shot is from the springs just above Gorman Falls.  A wonderful place to hang out and shoot for the morning…

 

So TLS starts tomorrow folks and I am pumped for it.  Downed a massive amount of BBQ already enough to feed about 5 people and then went shooting (great idea I know).  Settled down near the Llano river for a while to see what I could see and polish up on those long exposure skills.  The water wasn’t flowing very fast, but the end it helped out a bit and I caught the shot below.

On the way back up the hill I found this old swing and snapped one more shot before the light was gone…
