They Shall Not Pass
Killing time between meetings yesterday I called in at Harmans Cross station on the Swanage Railway. No trains running so it was nice an quiet, so a good time to experiment. This is a ten shot 'panorama' using the Brenizer Method named after professional photographer Ryan Brenizer, who developed the technique for portrait shoots. The idea is to shoot up close to the subject with the lens wide open, wider the better. For this shot the two signs fill the frame in a single shot, you then overlap consecutive images to create the 'panorama'. The result is a high resolution image with the subject set against a bokehful background. The finished Tif file weighs in at 416mb!!! Not sure if a railway sign is the best subject, but it was a chance to practice on an inanimate object :-)
Using the link to the online calculator the finished shot is equivalent to using a focal length of 59 mm and an aperture of 2.25.
