Nice job putting this together. I like them in order from top to bottom but together as one picture it is really good. Kerry

Michael:
Wow . . . I think some very good work, but hooking them together makes for smaller, harder to critique images . . . individually, we would get to check it out in full panoramic size.
At this scale . . . I can point out only a couple of things which seem to strike my eye. The top image, along the central to right side mountaintops . . . I seem to detect a slight halo. I was thinking it might be back lighting . . . but not likely along the entire range like that. The top image also seems to have a clipped or rounded lower right side corner which, ideally, should be pointed like the others even if you have a tad bit of cloning needed to do it. (Opinion, I know - LoL!)
I prefer the top and central images for the skies and the range with variable light that exists in them. They both also seem to show a better depth . . . in the canyon on the top image and in the right side of the central shot . . . with significant drop in focus in the distance to really add impact to that feeling of depth.
At this scale . . . I don't see any issues which are of any concern to me in the bottom image. Just personal preference . . . I imagine . . . makes it my least favorite of the three. All three, though, are quite nice. Exceptional quality work despite the seemingly low rating.
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~
PS: There is also possible compression issues on the right side of the central image in what may be banding in the sky. Can't tell for sure, just something for you to look at and decide. :)

I agree. I like usefilm precisely for the feedback and all of these went through some changes. I've learned now to appreciate the foreground and background, and to try to build a complete scene when I photograph. Thanks for the critical comment.

I will just chime in that none has a strong element in the foreground. I like landscapes that have stuff in the foreground as well as the background... perhaps next time you could find an interesting tree, a shrub or a flowering bush next time you frame these shots.
They are perfectly fine landscapes, but leading the eye from the front to the back of the frame would help all 3 images.
Just my 2ç.
Always a big fan of your work.

Aww, another picture of your little Munchkin. I see that he is actually a she. She's cute with long hair too, & kind of looks like my dog. I hope you enjoy her :) I remember your profile & like your pictures also. Best Wishes.

Hey, Michael, you should add a tool to your chest:
Digital noise removal. There are software applications (Neat Image, Noise Ninja) that only does one thing, and does it very well: removes noise from jpeg artifacting or from pushed ISO.
I use Neat image, and there's a free version if you don't need this clean-up often.
Nice framing.

I agree the first versions did require a PhD, but after looking at Panorama Factory both PT GUI and Panaorama Factory are comparable products. PT GUI performs blending and auto-point lineup as well with multiple projections. I also like that PT GUI does allow for PhD-type work like selecting an alternate render/stitcher, but also has simple and easy defaults.

Wow I just read your comment about Google's photo stitcher and others, you've never tried Smoky City Designs Panorama Factory. Michael, I've tried the others that you mentioned and I must tell you, I have not tried any software that can hold a candle to PF. It does the stitching job: auto, semi-auto, or manually. But where it is truly spectacular is in precision exposure matching. You don't have to use your manual exposure setting when shooting your original shots, the software matches the color and exposure from frame to frame.
Regarding PT GUI, its great, but I found that using it requires a doctorate in computer science and a lab notebook on the side!
Try Panorama Factory, I think it will win you over......let me know.
