Sparth Reservoir Panoramic Photos

Today I started to experiment with panoramic photos.

The above photo was created from two separate photos, using Affinity Photo 3. The process of doing this was very, very easy. The only problem was that it created a jpeg with a massive size, 22,741KB. A size which is far too big for a web site. The pixel size of the photo was 7607 by 3391. I used Affinity to reduce it to 4000 by 1783, which is much more manageable.

Both photos were taken with my camera mounted on my tripod. This allowed me to keep the camera on the same horizontal line for each photo.

The following photo was from the same location but used four photos taken at a much wider angle.

The following photographs were used to create the first panoramic photo on this page. There must be a large overlap between each photo, to allow Affinity to stitch the photos together properly.
