My health had somewhat elevated today, so I decided to go out and shoot some night photos with my old 35 mm Super Carenar lens.
(Btw. I'm writing this as I'm trying to edit the photos. I took a slightly different photo and I need to stitch it in digiKam.)
This is taking me some time since it looks like digiKam has been upgraded while I've not been using it, and it wanted to update everything. And I mean everything, it is looking through all the folders in my home directory instead of just ~/Pictures
.
(Oh, and it Looks like the digiKam albums are all over the place. The joys of using two cataloging software.)
Oh well. I finally found the photos I had pre-edited in darktable, now onto stitching them into a vertical panorama.
(...some time passes...)
Funny thing happened though... I ended up having to stitch the photos in Hugin instead of using digiKam as a front end to Hugin. Usually things like these work quite flawlessly in digiKam, but today it kind of decided to distort the picture to something I didn't want.
Stitched in Hugin only:
Quite pleased with this one.
Stitched in digiKam, using Hugin as backend:
Not so pleased with this one. ;)
Camera body: Canon EOS 550D
Lens: Super Carenar MC 1:2.8 ƒ=35 mm
Aperture: ƒ/11
Exposure: 15 s
ISO: Dual-ISO 100+200
Oh, "Why did I do a panorama instead of just one shot?" you ask. Well I only had the 35 mm lens with me, and I couldn't quite get far enough to fit the nearest tower into the picture, I decided I'll turn the camera upward a bit and get the rest of the tower into the photo as well. Sneaky, right? ;)
Okay, this was all I had time for tonight. Maybe something totally awesome in a later post, but now, before contracting a sequela I'll be going to bed. Thanks for sharing this photo journey with me! :)
