Multiple long exposures stitching - advice sought
« on: March 17, 2008, 06:17:49 pm »

Hi Guys

I'm interested to see if anyone has advice on how to achieve a multiple stiched image photo of a dynamic motion long exposure scene (eg long exposure of a beach/ocean scene?) ... advice from capture stage to post processing appreciated?

I just cannot work out how to achieve this without significant artifact and am not aware of how to 'correct' that artifact either.

Kind regards

Software can't ignore the fact that the scene has changed between exposures. The best you can do is use a stitching program that outputs as multiple layers (PTAssembler or PTGUI), get the stitch parameters as accurate as possible based of fixed objects, and then blend by hand to minimize artifacting. There is no real solution for your problem other than lot of painstaking manual labor.

Use more than one camera at the same time. Not the cheapest option but probably the least labour intensive.
