how's your focus? auto focus?

ya, i was using autofocus, and i refocus it between each shots,
is this that caused the problem ? and i set the white balance to Auto too..

Thanks alot..

you panorama shots are simply amazing !!

auto white balance may cause a colour shift from frame to frame.

all shots handheld, no tripod needed as mostly outdoor bright sunlight shots, just crop away the high and low.
i asked permission for the sleeping buddha shots, can take picture but no flash.

yupe 60% overlap is ideal for stitching, just to make sure that enough info for Photomerge to calculate and stitch your photos.
i divided my single frame into 3, overlapping 1/3 left and 1/3 right respectively.

The sleeping buddha's an awesome subject for photography

I think the reflection off the floor can be controlled with a polarizer. Not sure whether there will be problems when used in a panorama setup though.

Loke Mansion, Gurney Drive

QUOTE

Loke Mansion is a handsome "arts-and-craft" heritage villa facing the sea on prime real estate in Gurney Drive, Penang. It is one of the heritage sites in Penang threatened by surrounding developments, so I am documenting it for AsiaExplorers so that everybody can get to appreciate its heritage value.
Loke Mansion was built by Alan Loke, the son of tycoon Loke Yew, around 1924-25. In keeping with the habit among the well-to-do at that time of building ostentatious homes and giving them English-sounding names, Loke Mansion was originally called Chatsworth. The northern seafront where it was located, which is today Gurney Drive, was then called North Beach.
