My Private Skyline by Mareen Fischinger.

I photoshopped it myself (hands) because of all the angles, no program could do the job right, but I left in any distortions and color differences that came from an auto WB which I left on. If you want to do a panorama, make sure you manually set a medium exposure time and a fixed aperture. A manual white balance might be a good idea too, next time.
The layers are all 75% visible.

-- If anyone had their windows open, they must have thought some crazy paparazzo went wild, clicking his way through the evening.

Das ist fast so, als ob man ein Stapel voller Karten vom Tisch fallen lässt und diese auf dem Weg nach unten ein Kartenhaus bauen. :)

Heidenei, das ist ja ein Haufen Arbeit! Wie hast du die Bilder so zusammengeflickt? Aha, ich sehe deinen Tag jetzt: Viva-Photoshop. Alles klar :-) Kann es aber also gedrehte Bilder in alle Richtungen stitchen? odre das ist eher alles manuell?
Eine schöne Idee allerdings

Die Erklärung kam erst nach deinem Kommentar, also kein Problem!

Sehr schön, so wird auch aus einem eher gewöhnlichem Motiv ein kleines Kunstwerk! :)

Very nice, though. The colour differences make it more interesting imo.

So eine Aussicht inspiriert doch geradezu, stimmts... ;-)

Boah, das ist der bei weitem verrückteste Versuch eines Panoramas, den ich je gesehen habe. Ich bin da ja eher der Perfektionist, aber deins ist trotzdem klasse. Deswegen stört mich auch die wechselnde WB nicht. Sonst wär es doch auch eine Idee zu langweilig, oder?
btw: neues buddy icon?

Very slick. The layers make it look different. It stands out. Fantastic view out your window!

asmundur says:

This awesome. Must take some time to finish!

I wonder if this will become the next Flickr craze. Tiltshift, HDR and then this (I don't have a name for it).

Mareen Fischinger says:

Oh I hope it will not become flickr's new craze. Thank you all for the compliments!

kompliment auch von meiner seite! finds mal toll wieviel arbeit du dir da gemacht hast. darf man erfahren wie lange sowas dauert? - nutzt du ein tablet oder nur die maus?

arndalarm says:

Superbild! Stitchprogramme sind ja echt klasse, es geht aber einfach nichts über die Optik eines handgenähten Bildes. Tolle Collage!

Christian Stritzelberger says:

Hier springe ich mal kurz ein:
Sowas braucht ziehiehiehiehiemlich lange. Bzw ich hab für mein volkommen unkompliziertes schon ne ganze Weile gebraucht.
Aber jetzt der Vorteil: Es ist wie Puzzeln. Es ENTSPANNT... :-)))

cwoehrl says:

I absolutely love this miniseries, maybe just because there are a few imperfections left - they add character. Some time last winter I'd been into all of the latest crazes at once: HDR night panoramas based on minutely shifted shots. And this inherent need for perfection soon became so boring... Done like yours, this looks so much lighter, brighter and friendlier.

good job ;)

Ed.ward says:

Very cool but if you do ever find yourself wanting to do this automatically, autostitch can deal with angles with no problem - and you don't have to worry about WB / exposure issues either as it can match (and subsequently blur) any differences there too.

mares_ionut says:

I like your idea :)

jonathanrperkins says:

this has inspired me It makes me think outside the box of what can be done with an image. I love the location an the layering that you have going on, not only in the physical stacking of the images but the little links that allow the viewer to explore the space. I think I might play with those ideas exploring space and all. Thank you for the depth, and keep up the amazing work.
