Linear pano - halfway home!

Hi, Douglas MacDonald Identity 173. Let me give you a quick hint. As you take on a new identity, you really need to use not only a spelling checker, but also a grammar checker. That may help you stop misspelling the same words over and over (principal? advise? - you're illiterate, Dougie, just face it, but at least the words are consistent). Sadly, even if you get the words spelt right, it won't help to hide your attitude, stupidity and slavish defense of... yourself. Bit like your use of clocksnprints over on Ebay. Nobody is fooled. Except you. But I'm sure you *meant* to post this, and you *meant* to be busted within seconds. (O: |

You thought your example was good but this is bad? Get yourself to an optometrist quicksmart! Bret's has a few odd bits with the footpath and roof tiles, but he doesn't have buildings that have magically grown by a couple of feet, he doesn't have stairs that disappear into nowhere, etc, etc, etc. D-Mac may very well troll these groups with an ulterior motive but at From the horses mouth - douggy is a troll. least he knew enough not to try the impossible: matching the tiles on a roof! Yeah douggy, you couldn't even get the flat faces of the buildings to line up, you'd have no hope at all with tiles. You seem to have ignored every principal of creating one of these images and now wonder why it doesn't "look right". Back at the first post D-Mac made about it, he said using a telephoto lens, not a wide angle one was a key to successfully gathering images to work with. What did you use? 17mm? Irrespective of what he used, he managed to get a more accurate blend than you did. Must suck to be you right now D-Mac, the "tennessee jackass" as you like to call him, has done a substantially better job than any of your attempts. Maybe the "Tennessee Jackass" ain't so much of a jackass after all - he's clearly better at his craft than the Tangalooma Tosser. You seem to have such a fixation on this fellow as to do anything to avoid following his advise. Even to the point of sabotaging your own attempt. Time to start over. It's quite obvious Bret has just done a very good job of showing you up. You come in here blowing all sorts of wind out your arse about how it is a fantastic technique that should be used by others, then you post 2 examples. The first was comprehensively proven to not be a linear panorama at all, the 2nd example can only be described as pitiful. Bret posts his first effort, and despite having a few headaches with tiles and footpaths, manages to create an image that is quite acceptible. So much for D-Mac the expert professional. Looks more like D-Mac the bloody drongo. IB. |

Interesting that so far as I've seen, no one has commented on the substance of the critique, several of which are valid. -- john mcwilliams |

What lens, at what f/l did you use? You did pick a difficult subject for a pano. Clouds with some definition might help obscure the irregularities in the roof line. -- john mcwilliams |
