I had a winter panorama of my street and wondered if I could make a summer panorama from the same spot and merge parts of the image.  What you see is the result.  I vaguely knew where I had to take the shot from and check the altitude from the winter flight record.  That didn’t work, I needed a much better reference.  Studying the winter image I knew I must be a foot back of the sidewalk and then noticed that the street light was in the center of a driveway and a little into the street.  I took off and hovered near the edge of the sidewalk and then slowly climbed until the tip of the street light was in the right position on the monitor.  Took the pano shot and stitched it in MS ICE.  Here it was important to make the left edge the same as in the winter pano, just past the small window on the house.  Next both images were loaded into Photoshop.  Step one was make both images the same width by scaling the smaller one.  Step two was to copy the summer pano as a new layer in the winter pano.  Then adjusted its opacity to 60% so I could see both images.  They were a close match but not exact.  I had to side the summer shot down just a bit.  I then had to stretch it up to get the horizons to match.  The match was as good as it would be.  Lastly I erased parts of the summer pano to make the winter pano show threw.  I then added the sky to fill in the upper section of the pano.  If I were to do this again I would plan markers when taking the first image that would still be visible to line up the second image.


And now for the blended panorama.

For me, blended Panorama is missing.  
Below the 'And now for the blended panorama' is a long empty gap till reaching 'Favorite' and 'Like" buttons.  
Below that is two separate pictures, Winter Street 1 and Summer Street 1b.

Interesting to hear that, what browser are you using?
Here is a link to my Skypixel page; it has a dozen 360 panos.  Try if you can view these.Skypixel Page

With Skypixel, I can see a small Preview of blended Winter/Summer - but not the full sized image.  Comes up blank.  Strange.

Thanks for your feed back.  I understand there is some java code on the website to make the 360 panos work.  However I have no control over the code.  Java code execution can be affected by settings in the users browser.
