Putting Canterbury's Marlowe Theatre in its place
DO NOT RELY ON IN-CAMERA PANOS, whatever make of camera, you cannot easily correct faults in the stitching, you are utterly dendent on the camera's choice of algorithm and final framing, and you get a too-small pixel count. If you use an in-camera pano function, back it up with individual frames. This pano was made from 20 portrait format frames, using the Photoshop CS6 Photomerge function. An attempt to merge all 20 at once crashed the program. I merged frames 1-8, 6-14, and 12-20 to make three intermediate panoramas, desisted from cropping the irregular intermediates, and re-subjected the three small panos to the Photomerge routine. I cropped the final pano, leaving a small amount of cloning to fill in small pieces of the road surface and a very small piece of sky, and I had to remove some of the phone wires, which Photomerge had made a mess of.
This image covers about 270 degrees horizontally.
