Finally was able to complete this freehand photo pan of two rows. Used Photoshop Elements 6 to make two upper and two lower panoramics, then stitched the upper pan sections together, the lower pan sections together, and then lastly, when 6 failed on a 8GB Intel quad, I used Photoshop Elements 7 trial software on a 2GB AMD Quad to stitch the upper& lower pans together. Hugin did not get the lighting to come out properly while stitching the upper and lower pans, but there are a lot of settings that I am not clear on...maybe the "enfuse"? blend setting should be used. Gigapan stitcher and Autostitch had problems as well, but again, I need better understanding of the parameters to use. PSE6 did not blend the grass well for some reason.
