Started





over the weekend i have analysed my images and have terraced them in photoshop. while doing this i have found that the lighting within the images can change the colour tone slightly but that can cause problems when stitching.

DVD is very Helpful

believe you me i am finding the DVD very helpful. but one thing i will say about the dvd is that i find it is material that you should watch in stages because when you are working with your own images you should pay more attenetion to the detail and techniques.

Photos Taken

After taking my photos I can say that I am happy with my images but there is still some elements that I am worried about. I am very happy with two of my locations but on one of them I feel that the plants around make the image seem too confined also I feel that the sun will make the tones seem different on each image.  

Developing ideas

after reviewing my ideas such as a sequence of panoramics of the beach, interiors of my house, my neighborhood and seaford town i decided to go with the idea of the resting places of seaford. this will include seaford cemetry and two of the churches in seaford. the reason i have decide to develope this idea is because every time i pass these locations i admire there architecure therefore i feel that the locations would be much more interesting being presented as a VR.

QTVR & VR Photography


QuickTime VR(virtual Reality) Is a piece of software that has been developed by apple. This software has been developed to aid the viewing of panoramic photography.  

 

VR Photography is a way of viewing a interactive wide angle panoramic phoographs, these photos are presented in a 360 degree circle. VR photography is a way of capturing the whole scene of a location as a single image.  

Panoramic Photography Tips

After looking at into panoramic photography I have found a number of useful tips

·   It is best to have a space between each image of 20 – 40 % so that when it comes to assemblig the images using the software it will over lap well

·   It is best not to have objects too close to the camera because this will make movement very obveious

·   Make shure that there is not a variation of brightness when taking the image because it will also be very obveious

·   Also it is best to use a tripod but panoramics can be done without a tripod but you are making more work for yourself
