Old Barn (28 photos)

HDR panorama taken at Cobblestones Regional Early Settlers Museum in Greytown, New Zealand.

This image was taken with a Raspberry Pi controlling my Canon 600D with a Tamron 18-270mm PZD. It is a 4 image 7 bracketed HDR merged into a panorama. Therefore this image consist of 28 photos. Bracketed shots taken with gphoto and HDR processing done with Photomatix. This is possibly one of the most complex photos I have ever produced.


To take this photo I had to set my tripod up in a doorway and open up my lens to 18mm. Stitching the panorama in Photoshop was pretty challenging due to the excessive image distortion because of the wide-angle setting and also because I had to pan my camera from an off-center position. Lighting is all natural and this image would not have been possible without HDR processing to combine the best of the under and over exposed parts of the images.
