Comment This looks very nice, but given how easy it is to insert a few horizontal guides in the proper panoramic stitching software at the very least the horizon should be straight. --Dschwen (talk) 16:59, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - Yes, maybe I need some device. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:54, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- What program did you use to assemble the images? --Dschwen (talk) 19:24, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- I used Hugin and tried to put the horizon straight. The problem is the simulation has nothing to do with the final result. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:35, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Check out how vertical and horizontal guides work. This tutorial is about vertcial guides, but it applies to horizontal guides (which are needed in this picture). If you use those hugin will level and straighten your horizon automatically without further mucking around. Very helpful! --Dschwen (talk) 20:53, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Info Thanks, Daniel. I have upoladed a new version on top of the original in which a very small cw tilt was also corrected. Yes, the horizon still looks a bit curved but I think that most of it is an optical illusion caused by the rest of the geometry. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:31, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Most of it is actually caused by undercorrected barrel distortion of your lens. And proper usage of horizontal guides would have taken care of this. I can only warmly advise you to look into this if you want to make you life easier and your panoramics better. The amount of work would have been the same or even less than trying to fiddle with just the rotation, but as added benefit your bent horizon would have been straightened as well. --Dschwen (talk) 15:14, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
- Please feel free to try. I did it several times, with little success. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:15, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Awesome! That tutorial will be very helpful to me as well. --Notyourbroom (talk) 23:51, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Oppose Sorry, nothing special IMHO. —kallerna™ 12:53, 15 April 2009 (UTC)- Oppose Per Kallerna. As well. some technical issues (curved horizon). --S23678 (talk) 02:50, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Neutral for now (pending technical issue) --Klaus with K (talk) 17:30, 17 April 2009 (UTC)- Support A good photo. Its a bit dark but that is due to the landscape only. --Leoboudv (talk) 06:08, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
