Creating ultra high-resolution imagery

- Whether you own an iPhone, some other smartphone,…a really sweet camera, or some other really sweet camera,…I'm confident you've experimented with capturing…grand, wide panoramas.…Pick a vantage point, start shooting,…move the camera in the direction…of the line or what have you,…but don't move too fast,…and the device more or less gloms a many shots…into a weirdly creased thing that looks like…you physically stitched a bunch of postcards together…using scissors and paste.…That is no the idea behind panoramas in Photoshop.…

First, you capture a handful of distinct images,…preferably in portrait orientation…from a stationary vantage point.…Then you invoke Photoshop's photo merge command…to distort the images into alignment,…blend the tones and colors as only Photoshop can,…and even close up the gaps using content aware fill.…It's flat-out amazing and it's how I managed…to capture this rice field in Bali, Indonesia,…that you see before you now,…but that's just the tip.…You can stitch interior scenes,…not to mention vertical ones to boot.…
