Panoramas Continued

Since my last post about panoramas, I’ve made several more that I really like.  This post I’ll focus (pun intended) 🙂 on ones from my local neighbourhood.  I’ve also made it so you can click on each of the images and see them up close and personal in a new window.  Without being too conceited, I think you’ll enjoy the extra details you can see in the larger versions!  I always do.

First, one I stitched together from 2 photos taken in July from a walk at DeBoughville Slough with J and my sister, in Coquitlam, BC.

Looking NE up the Pitt River at the Golden Ears Mt massif in the background. Golden Ears Mt is centre-left and Blanshard Needle is is the pointy one almost dead centre.

 

Next, a pano taken in October, from 2 photos taken with my LG5 phone camera on the the Bluffs above Admiralty Point in Belcarra Park, Port Moody, BC.

Looking West down the Burrard Inlet past Vancouver in the distance.

Another October stitch, from 7 photos taken from a hike to the White Rock viewpoint in Coquitlam.  If you look at the centre land features in this one, you can see the same hill and towers and point of land you saw in the previous picture.  This is up higher and a more expansive view.  Vancouver Island way in the distance.

Looking South and West. You can see city of Vancouver, Burnaby, and Richmond. Also SFU on Burnaby Mt in left mid-ground.

 

Here’s one I made from a 3 photos one cloudy December morning while walking around the inlet. I’m on the North side shooting South. Another set with the LG5.

Not perfect but it made Explore on Flickr with almost 6 thousand views and that is saying something!

One from Maple Beach on a January hike to Admiralty point.  A stitch of 5 shots.  It was a “dreary” day so black and white was the way to go here.

Here’s one at the Rocky Point piers in February, looking North towards the mountains.  2 LG photos stitched to make this.

Last but not least, 2 panoramas I made a few days ago during a walk around Buntzen Lake.  It was cloudy, the lake was perfectly still and I was, as they say, in the right place at the right time. The first one is a composite of 4 shots.

This second one is a stitch of 10 photos!  That’s right, 10.  It took a bit of processing time but was totally worth it.  It also made Explore and as of the writing of this post, was about to break 7,000 views!  As you might imagine, I’m very proud of this one.

So there you have it, my latest local panorama compositions.  Can’t really call them photos because they are always put together from at least 2 and often more, captures.  Hope you enjoyed the show.

Keep rambling,

Rich

  1. Richard, those were ahhhmazing. i loved them all. and Have to say, that last one is stellar. I can’t even see the “stitch” in any of them. You have gotten this process down bro.
    Love seeing your “adventures” all the time.

    1. Thanks, Ruth. It’s the software, not me that does the stitching so credit it. I do it in Adobe Lightroom CC classic. It has gotten WAY better at merging photos into panoramas over the years.

  2. I heard the LG5 had a good camera. After viewing your photos I see it is good… of course there was a fabulous photographer behind the camera as well 😉. Beautiful photos as usual!

    1. Thank you, Lily! I always love seeing your photos too so we can form a mutual admiration photo club 🙂 I got the LG5 BECAUSE of its camera and the reviews and I have not been disappointed. But the other panos were created from shots taken with my Canon Mark II 5D which is no slouch of a camera!
