City scenes
Capture panoramas of your hometown city or vacation destinations.
In cities, you need to be more aware of objects in motion—specifically vehicles and
people. You may also find that buildings can get distorted when you stitch your pan-
orama.
To avoiding moving objects, watch for people or street traffic that might get in the way
of your shots - pause the panorama before they do and resume the panorama after
they have left the frame, or pause go back and resume where you left off. This may
not always be feasible, so you can also retake the shot where the moving object got
in the way and insert it into your image in post-production. (Remember to remove any
extra images you shoot before stitching)
A few tips if you’re shooting buildings:
Try to get as far from the building as possible to capture the full building.
1.
Instead of facing the building, shoot it from a 45° angle for a unique perspective.
2.
Make sure that the corner of the building is at the center of your scene.
