Here are three panorama shots I merged tonight from my trip to Bordertown last weekend as a try out for the new D800E. Quite a bit of airglow to the south and horizon lights to the west is from the town.
I ran out of space on Flickr so had to upload the hi-res versions to Redbubble sorry! Merged in CS5, jpgs only, auto tone, contrast/brightness and some vibrance only. I see that the stars were stretched by CS5 at the top. anyone use a different method of stitching? Should lens correction be done first to help perhaps?
