Re: [APML] Aurora NY (mosaic explanation)

Hi Stuart, No I did the mosaic in photoshop.
I made the canvas size big enough to handle both
images on the first picture, (made the canvas black),
dragged second image on the canvas, and lightened to
100%... the rest was lining it up.
Lastly, I crop the image to take out the excess
overlay.
Sometimes trees need to be eliminated with the clone
tool which can be easy enough or hard enough<g>.
Sometimes of course you have to tilt the image.
If the image is crooked enough, then Ill take it into
picture window to line it up the way i want to.

This is much harder with daytime shots...alignment on
the field is almost a must with a level along with the
same exposure...fun fun.

It takes me around 10-15 mins to do the mosaic in PS7.

Thanks Stuart!
Brian
