One of the most important steps you can take is to make sure that you have turn off your auto white balance on your camera.  This will ensure each image in the series has the same colour tone.  We have a poor ability to remember similar colours but a very good ability to distinguish them side by side.  Shooting your images with the same white balance will help to ensure this.<\/p>\n<p>Similar to this, if you can set a manual exposure for the entire series of images, this too will help to ensure seamless images.  Finally, try to keep the camera perpendicular to the ground. The will ensure that you will not have to needlessly crop your final image later. Of course this process can become more technical including finding the nodal point of your camera\/lens combination and using special tripod heads but that is not for this blog.<\/p>\n<p>Until next time, happy shooting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of the software packages that come with digital camera&#8217;s as well as a lot of the photo editing software applications have features that let you stitch a series of images together to create a panoramic shot.
