Impressive machinery!

And considering the whole frame with all its poles and bars and other geometrical shapes, I'm very impressed with the (quasi-)absence of ghosts and other stitching hiccups. How did you do that one?

What do you mean?
I just told PTGuy where are the jpegs and their order and that was it.
No ghosts, phantoms , etc.
No hiccups either.
I guess I was lucky.

Interesting, the way this machinery is configured, and the shot is composed, the machinery on the underside on the right isn't nearly as obvious as that big gantry or whatever it's called, so it looks as if the whole business is hanging in the air, unsupported on the far right. Amazing chunk of technology to document as well.

First version. With IS.

Link from Wikipedia with a picture of the same machinery

I don't use PTGui (I have to give it a try, but I'm not yet ready to buy it), but in my experience with multiple stitching softwares, everything that kooks like a "line"has always been a struggle. More often than not, it doesn't work out.

And as you have a lot of these line-shaped objects in your composition, it's very good it all worked out. Luck or skill Smile
