Panorama


Last week we were to capture images for a panorama, upload  the images to Lightroom and merge them into a panorama in Photoshop.   I have Lightroom 2 and  CS2  and wouldn't you know it - there does not seem to be an interface between LR2 and Photoshop for Photomerge.  I could have organized the images in Bridge - but I no longer have it and since I use LR most of the time I have not tried to reinstall it.

Although it was late at night, I was determined to get all my loose ends
tied up - so I can concentrate on the final and the magazine advertisement
assignment in the Studio Practices class.  I sent all 16  (yes I said 16) of
the images from Lightroom 2 into Photoshop and tried to open them in
Photomerge.

Slow as molasses and shut down PS2 a couple of times - finally got it done
around 3am.  Now I have to think about the best way to print it.  The
original size is 110"x11.5."  Roll paper is $110 for luster and $60 for matte
- will try to reduce the size so I can print it on the 13x19 paper I already
have.   Maybe I can cut it down, print it on two sheets and mount those
sheets together.  I have more images - if I can't get this down to a
reasonable size - will start over :(
