gigapixel, of death!

just over a gigapixel in Mill road Cemetary in cambridge.

http://lifeinmegapixels.com/location.php?location=grave

600x113px thumb attatched.

While the content came out nicely, this one is note-worthy for a different reason.

It is shot at about 150mm and has the sky filled in at 36mm (35mm equiv)

previously (e.g http://lifeinmegapixels.com/location.php?location=landh and http://lifeinmegapixels.com/location.php?location=cms) i have rendered the two focal lengths in different panos then combined them post processing which has left som rather obvious seams between sky and ground/buildings.

this time i used the method outlined by alexandrej in this thread: http://www.autopano.net/forum/t6365-mix … n-one-pano

key post is #9:
"I agree with you hankkarl. We are working on a blender that will use this focal length different to first keep the one from the longest focal.
The solution for the moment is either render several layer, one per focal then, blend manually in photoshop, or paint transparency. I did that once for a gigapixels :
70mm for the sky and 200mm everywhere else. The order of operation is important :

1. Detect the panorama ( jpeg in entry for example )
2. Convert the 70mm into png format, paint the ground transparent so the ground is forced to come from 200mm images
3. Replace in the .pano file the .jpg by .png for the image you edit
4. Render"


I am very pleased with how well this worked compared to my bodge-job with previous panoramas.

Re: gigapixel, of death!

Allow me to interest you in using a viewer that doesn't make me feel like I'm looking at the moon through a microscope next time, such as www.gigapan.org :] I also saw a zoomify plugin once that had a fullscreen button, worth checking out, although the www.gigapan.org viewer is better than zoomify. Says me ;]

Re: gigapixel, of death!

hello,
here is the html source of my pages with zoomify, that allow me to have the panorama as big as possible on the page :

Code:

<html>
<head>
    <title>San Francisco vu depuis les Twin Peaks - mars 2008</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0" width="100%" height="100%" id="ZoomifyViewer">
                <param name="flashvars" value="zoomifyImagePath=twinpeaks">
                <param name="menu" value="false">
                <param name="src" value="ZoomifyViewer.swf">
                <embed flashvars="zoomifyImagePath=twinpeaks" src="ZoomifyViewer.swf" menu="false" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%" height="100%" name="ZoomifyViewer"></embed>
             </object>
</body>
</html>

there are only 3 things not to forget to change : the title of the page and the 2 references to the pano itself (twinpeaks in this case)
Georges

PS: the result of the above code can be seen at : http://www.georges-basile.com/panoramas … npeaks.htm
