more …. Crater Lake
Going through the set of images made during my recent rip to Oregon, I forgot that I had made multiple images so I could create a panorama of Crater Lake.

Here is what I did -
- I set the exposure manually.
- I took (8) overlapping images
- Use the Photomerge function of Photoshop CS3 .. auto align and auto blend
- Removed sensor dust in Photoshop
- Cropped to 3:1 ratio
- Saved as PSD file
- Reopened in Lightroom and applied tonal adjustments and sharpening.
If I could do it over, I would have found a way to bring my tripod. The images were taken hand held and I have a better chance of rotation while holding the camera horizontally than vertically. If I had my tripod I would have captured images vertically to capture more vertical height all around.
I appreciate your critiques and comments - what would you do to improve this image ?
Thanks !
