pretty amazing... if you dont mind could you fill me in on a few questions regarding this process? what focal length what used for this scene? how do you compensate for image parallax issues, even if your shooting on a tripod pivoting on the lens' nodal point the helicopter moving ever so slightly will throw it off id imagine? any less obvious tips on multi panoramas would be awesome... nice work man keep it up

55mm focal length. There is no tripod. Its all hand held. I compensate for parralex by cutting up individual builings and pieces of the picture. watch the video and you can see how i do it.

Ahaha, that must of taken you at least 3 hours. Give me those pictures and it'll be done in 3 minutes.

i am willing to let you try that. not 1 pair of these photos are shot from the exact same angle. impossible for a computer to do.

[taosupremo]

I don't think any one quite understands how difficult this is... Great job from a fellow photographer!
