> Thanks, Chuck. The first one I did, "Backside Panorama", was horizontals
with the camera at eye level inside the fence. "Backside Carnage" was
horizontals with the camera up on the stick, but with the screen down.
Even at that, in fairly bright sunlight, I ended up having to straighten
most of the shots of the building on the left, and I didn't have much
cropping room left.
The last one I did by hand-holding the camera vertical with my right hand,
with the RF remote in my left hand. I could see just enough of the skyline
in the screen to keep it relatively level. Even at that, that dang West
tower on the left still fought me. But with the verticals, I had much more
"crop space". Plus I got a smoother (IMO) stitch with the larger number of
verticals versus the smaller number of horizontals.
