Merging photos to create a new Panorama

The fantastic automated tool "Create Photomerge" does an excellent job of turning a series of photos into a panorama.
I have one series using an older camera that just does not work smoothly and I need to do this manually. My main trouble is trying to get the sky colours to match up, something that Photomerge does automatically.
If I were to put my project on the forum, would someone be so kind as to describe how I could go about making the colour transitions from image to image run more smoothy?
This is a screen dump of the project so far ...
Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks.
Peter

Hi,
What version of photoshop are you using?
In recent versions of photoshop you could select all the layers and then go to Edit>Auto-Blend Layers and use Panorama with Seamless Tones and Colors.

Hi Anjohi,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you've edited photos on your iPad and only see the original version when you import them to your computer, the tips in this article may help:

Iphoto can´t find my photos, is creating a new library the only solution?

Ok, I am having a hard time understanding iPhoto and its libaries. There are two parts of my question;
1.
I imported all my photos which I had on an external hard drive. I then changed my mind and copied them to the harddrive, and also kept thm on the external as a backup.
Now iPhoto cant find any of the photos. The thumbnails are there, but every time I doubleclick on an image, an error message appears The volume for “x.jpg” cannot be found.
I have about 14.000 pictures, so to sit and "find photo" one by one would take a very long time...
Is there another way to make iPhoto find all the images again?
2.
I think I found one soulution to this, but Im not sure Im doing it right. What I did was that I downloaded "iPhoto library manager", created a new library, named it "No.2" and imported all the photos again into that library. This seems to be working fine. However, when I click the default library in Finder, it says that it takes up 9 GB of my harddrive. Can I delete this library? Or will it affect iPhoto since it is the default library?
I am completely new to Mac and still stuck in Windows-land. So if anyone can help me with this it is much appreciated!

Hi,
thank you foryou quick reply!
Ok, so nothing will happen to the images if i trash the original library?
Also, i have another question you might have an answer to. When I open the No.2 library (I have imported all the images to here) every time a message appears "6 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that were not imported" I click "Yes" every time, but no images are imported and the message appears every time I open iPhoto. Aslo, every time I click Yes, iPhoto creates an album called "recovered Photos 1" "2", "3" etc. What photos does this regard? Can I get rid of this message somehow?

How to save new edits and text to photo without creating a new file

I am a new user of PSE 7. I am able to enhance and add text to my photos but can't save the edits without creating a new PSD PSE file in addition to the original unedited photo. How do I save the phto itself as edited?

If you really want to make your changes irreversible then use “Save As” and select file type from the dropdown list e.g. jpeg and enter the exact same file name as the original. Click OK to save and OK to overwrite the original.
While this of course is the answer to the question, the idea of overwriting the original is simply a bad idea. If you do this, you can never get back to your original and start again. That text will always be there.
I advise the original poster not to do this. Save your edits as a different name.

I cannot open photos or create a new file

I have been trying to open photos (jpeg), but nothing happens. It won't even create a new file.
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply.
I uninstalled a program I had just installed, that preceeded the problem, and what do you know...
PSE is working fine again!!!
Problem solved.

How can I select 5-star photos in one catalog and use them to create a new catalog

I've been using Lightroom since LR1. I now have several LR 5.5 catalogs generally organized by year and camera. I want to create a new catalog which will contain my best from each catalog. BUT, I don't want to remove the photos from their "home" catalog. The photos will continue to reside in both their original catalog and in the new "Portfolio" catalog. The easiest way to approach this is to filter photos in catalog "A" by rating, select all 5-star photos and create a new catalog containing just the selection. I don't want to export or remove them from their catalog or move them on disk. I want them to appear in BOTH catalogs. Since Lightroom is built on a database that merely points to image files, it seems like this should be possible.
I realize I can create an empty catalog and select File->Import from Another Catalog... , then locate the photos one at a time by name and location clicking the import checkbox - tedious is an understatement when you have several 10's of thousands of photos.
Any ideas?

Yes, that's an option I've considered. But as with any database, size is inversely proportional to speed - larger database equals slower performance. LR 5 is much better than earlier versions in this regard but when you reach 100,000 images you can feel it.
This is incorrect. I accept that you think the database is getting slower, but the database (and really all databases) are designed to work pretty much the same regardless of the number of records, except for perhaps searching through the entire catalog. We have seen in this forum people who are now editing larger RAW files than a few years ago, they see it is slower, and decide it is the size of the database, rather than the size of their photos.
What aspects of Lightroom are slow? If it's scrolling and displaying the previews and searching, then it might be the database. If its displaying images in the Develop module, it is NOT the database at all.
Have you taken steps to improve the performance of the database, such as Optimizing it regularly? have you tried these performance tips: FAQ: Experiencing Performance related problems in Lightroom?

Move album from one library to another without creating a new project

I accidentally added photos to a new album in the wrong library. I want to move this album with masters and versions to the right library. I exported the album as a project. Then I import the project into the library where I want the album to appear. Importing using either merge or add creates a new project which contains the album. Is there a way to put the album into an already existing project without creating a new one? Using Aperture 3.1.1.

As Frank said, masters and versions all move together. They can't be separated because a version can't exist without a Master file. In fact, when working in RAW everything you see in Aperture is a version since RAW files need to be rendered for onscreen viewing. The masters are on your hard drive somewhere (managed or referenced) and what you see when you import a RAW file is simply an unedited version 1.
This is one of the most important concepts to grasp: you're never actually working with the masters. Aperture is just a big database pointing to files and applying instructions (adjustments) to those files in realtime on your screen.
Just remember that a picture and any of its versions can appear in many albums, in many different places. But as I said earlier, it can only appear in one project. Move a picture from a project and everything follows. Versions are just different renditions of the same master file.
Not sure I'm clear - hopefully I'm helping a bit!

How to create a new album in iCloud windows 7

How to create a new album in iCloud on a windows 7 op. system, ready to accept old photos?

Since asking the question I have a workaround. Load your photos into iCloud on the PC.They will then appear on the iPad in all photos. Create a new album on the iPad [plus sign top left corner]. Select your photos to place into the album. Press add [top line] and the photos pop into the album. This will then appear in iCloud on the PC. Be nice if there was a create new album on the PC. All done in windows 7.

Why is panorama merged photo not saving correctly?

Why would my panorama merged photo show an exclamation point when saved? It showed the photo merged in the workspace but wouldn't save the picture.

The collage maker has a few bugs. I can’t even use mine as I get an error message as soon as I select any size image. Also there is a very restricted choice of templates. I’m on Windows so you experience is possibly different.
You can do it manually in Full Photo Edit
Click File >>New >>Blank File

I have a photo of an ice surface and another of a flower. Now I want to create a merged photo with the flower lying under the ice. I understand that I shall use the function "Layer" and have even read in the manual and looked on a video, but that information is not sufficiently detailed for me. I have tried several options, but I come now way. Generally it seems that your information is only for the ones who can, not for the people who can´t although it is we who really need to learn. Please give me a step by step (click by click) information on how I can get the ice above the flower and then make the ice partly transparent so the flower is seen underneath. Please send me an e-mail Erik Solbu [email protected]

Open a new document big enough for your image. Then additional open your ice and flower image as well. Copy each and paste it into your blank document. They will be placed on their own separate layers.
Make sure in your layers panel. (Bottom right) the ice is above the flower, by dragging it in place. In that same layers panel click the ice layer to select in and find the opacity meter above. Drag to the left until you get the effect you desire.

Well, I created a new Apple ID and I put money on it, I wanted to sign into ICloud and it wouldn't let me sign in due to the usage of too many Apple IDs created. The point for logging into the ICloud was to save my photos before I reset my phone.

I recently created a new apple ID
Bad idea.
Content bought with an Apple ID is forever associated with that Apple ID. Apple will not transfer content from one Apple ID to another and Apple will not merge Apple IDs. Unless you are prepared to forfeit all the previously purchased content and buy it all again with the new Apple ID, you will need to maintain the old ID to update and redownload your content.

Merging photos to Panorama from LR4 to CS4 ?

When merging photos (RAW files) from LR3 in CS4 then all the modifications done to the photos (files) are reconized in CS4 and the Panorama has the same appearance in respect of exposure and color parameters.
When merging photos (RAW files) from LR4 in CS4 then the modifications done to the photos in LR4 (files) are not reconized in CS4 and the Panorama has the appearance of the untreated photos, same as imported. CS4 does not recognice, implement the LR4 modifications !!
I need first to export the photos to an other format and then merge them so that the LR modifications are implemented
Why that suddenly ?? This is a step back

Probably because the version of ACR in CS4 is two versions behind the raw processing engine used by default in LR4? So, I assume you're using PV2012 in LR4 (e.g. with the new basic panel sliders), but ACR 5.7 can only recognise PV2003 and PV2010, and is therefore not able to correctly render the images as per your develop settings. (If you're not using PV2012 in LR4 however then it's a bit of a mystery...)
As you've discovered, the only way around this is to first use LR4 to render the images to TIFF/PSD, and then subsequently load them into CS4 for panorama stitching. The alternative would be to use PV2003/2010 for the raw images you wish to stitch together, but that would mean missing out on the superior PV2012 rendering.
If you upgrade to CS6 this will cease to be an issue.

I have recently transferred data from my old PC to my new Mac Book Pro (Mavericks OS). Each transfer creates a new User account (titled 'Owner', 'Owner 1', etc). I want to merge the files from these transfers into my main user account. Help?

I have recently transferred data from my old PC to my new Mac Book Pro (Mavericks OS). Each transfer creates a new User account (titled 'Owner', 'Owner 1', etc). I want to merge / consolidate the files from these newly created User accounts into my main user account. Is there a tutorial for this process, or any tips? Anyone?

Four transfers. After the initial attempt with Migration Assistant failed (after hours and hours of wifi transfer) I did "mini-transfers" of more manageable, smaller bits of files -- my music in one, photos in another, etc. Since posting my question in this forum, i contacted Apple support, chatted with Angela, and she suggested getting an ethernet-USB adapter for my mac, connecting my external drive with ethernet and transferring files manually -- that is, NOT using the Migration Assistant at all. She sent me this link to help: Switch Basics: Migrate your Windows files to your Mac. I appreciate your response, tho', Csound1!
