Been after a shot of a Navy Chetak for ages now, pretty pleased with this one.

Had the kids at the fair/bonfire so the DSLR & tripod was out of the question for some long exposure piccies. Instead I grabbed the X10 and did a bit of point and shooting including having a play with the panorama mode with the intention of trying something in PS later. This is it.

 

That is... weird. How did you do it?

Threw a couple of my shots on airliner.net. They're supposed to be very picky about what they accept, so if something goes up, I'll know it's good.

Meanwhile, more navy.

Start with a panorama and resize (untick constrain proportions) so the height matches the width and rotate 180 degrees. Then go to filter > distort > polar coordinates and choose rectangular to polar.

Ideally you need a level horizon and of course a full 360 degrees pano with the edges connecting

 

Deceptively simple. I like it

 

Very true. The post work is simple. The trick is getting the pano right in the first place.

 

Word of the day: Sparkles.

Had some fireworks for the wee man, he seemed to like them. Wife wouldn't get too close so this is 3200 iso and wide open.

This is Will Asher, currently ranked number 3 in the world. I took this at my ski club's annual slalom competition.

 

I've had a shedload of work, but I finally got around to processing some shots from the Indian GP. Sorry it's taken me so long
