Balmoral Pano…

by on Jan.20, 2013, under Life, Photography

Headed down to Balmoral beach (on Sydney’s middle harbour) for a sunrise shoot. The sunrise isn’t in an ideal location for anything too interesting which would include the sun in the frame but it’s a nice location with some interesting elements including a small island just off the beach. As seems typical with the sunrise shoots of late there were very few clouds to add any interest to the sky.

This was taken about 10 minutes before sunrise and consisted of a set of 54 (18 sets of 3 bracketed [0, -2 & +2EV] exposures) vertical images at a relatively wide angle (35mm).

Each of the brackets were blended and then those results were then stitched into this very wide (probably around 250 degrees) panorama and a couple distracting elements were cloned out (lamp post, seat).

In this case it’s hard to really see the image with this very small thin image and it’s worth clicking through to the larger image to see more detail – and of course the 30,000 x 5,800 pixel master image looks great 🙂

NIKON D600 + @ 35 mm, 1 sec at f/9, ISO 100
