Street in Brandon: 4 photos autostitched, B&W.
Hello out there! It seems I've found a free program that will stitch multiple photos together. It's called Autostitch and it is a blast to work with. It works on a really easy premise. Take a few horizontal or vertically stacked photos, import them into autostitch, and stitch them together!
There are a few flaws in the program though. For example: stitching two different angled photos together won't work. Also, make sure that the next photo you take in your sequence contains an object from the previous photo. Otherwise, the program won't know where to join them. Another thing to watch for is stitching different exposed photos together. It will work, but the panorama will be exposed differently in different areas.
After autostitch does it's magic, you'll have to crop the photo. You'll end up with something like this:
You'll have to import it into gimp, or windows photo editor to crop it. Personally, I fiddled with mine in gimp, and added a dramatic black and white effect:
And there's the finished product! Happy stitching!

Love the finished project, birds eye view that is for shore. :)
ReplyDeleteThe final image looks stunning.
ReplyDeleteHad an idea, what if you had the final stitched image as your header.
There are million other possibilities.
But the auto-stitch program sounds interesting, will give it a try.
