Taken from the Longfellow Bridge in that wonderful, warm late afternoon sunlight just before dusk, this photo shows the banks of the Charles River in Boston at pretty much the peak time of the autumnal colors here in New England. The green skyscraper on the right-hand side of the photo is the John Hancock Tower.
I merged this shot together from 9 different portrait (vertical), hand-held exposures using the ever-handy Photoshop, and then brought the new panorama back into Lightroom for cropping and further processing. I really wanted those Fall colors to jump out at the viewer.
I took a number of different panorama shots that day, after having spent the day in the Scott Kelby Photoshop workshop for digital photographers and being inspired by some of the techniques Scott talked about for capturing good panoramas. As I said in my previous post, I really recommend Scott’s workshops for anyone interested in the craft of digital photo processing.
