Multnomah Falls Learning Experience by Brian Kroll

Learning how to use a GigaPan is not without it's challenges. Unfortunately the unit I rented is in need of some minor servicing that allowed it to shift at a critical moment of the capture right at the Benson Bridge. With the raw materials I'll probably be able to make some corrections manually, but as you can see the automated process did not yeild good results. I shot multiple images of the areas with people and expected to need to do some manipulation there, but not on the fixed objects.

The rest of the image turned out quite good, I now wish I had done manually focused each grid location along the top but that is another part of the learning process. Instead I focused on one point and figured that would be good accrosss the first few rows, as you can see those results leave something to be desired. The area around the lamp will be easy to clean up if I choose to do so on this image.

GigaPan and Pro Photo were extremely responsive and are taking good care of me, both great Portland companies I'm happy to support!
