A 360 sphere taken inside Halifax Minster. The UK version of Halifax, not the Canadian one ;-)

It took about 3 hours to fix the stitching errors and I've probably missed some. Outside spheres are for amateurs ;-)


A second 360. I think my Gimble needed calibrating for this pano. Everything seems slanted.When creating the pano with Microsoft ICE, it didn't create the bowtie effect on the ceiling, it auto filled it in.
But I was unable to correct the misplaced wooden beam during processing, as that it appears on the edge of the frame as a blurred area.

Spectacular. You've put some work into that! Just a slight wiggle in the pew below the drone, maybe?  But that's being REALLY picky.

Very cool!

Astonishing inside 360!   Superb stitching job Mark.

Thank you for pointing that out. I will fix it.

Thank you very much.

Does anyone know if it's possible to embed a Sky Pixel link into a Facebook post?
The uploaded version on Facebook is always slow to load/clunky and is zoomed in too much.

It's barely noticeable, to be honest. But once youv'e seen it, you can't un-see it

I've fixed it. I might as well spend the extra time to get it right.

Absolutely Brilliant.

Amazing 360!

Thank you.

Very nice results and I agree that indoor stitching is considerably more challenging.

Have you considered using Affinity Photo for the final retouching? Affinity has a really good 3D sphere that is great for editing the zenith and nadir.

I've used that software in the past. But I probably deleted it and forgot the name of it.

Woooow! That's amazing!

Wow, that worked very well!
How do you correct stitching errors?
(I always fail at that)

I've not seen any tutorials on how to fix the errors, so here's what I do in Photoshop.

Duplicate the layer.
Use the Lasso tool (L) to draw a selection directly through the error and include a wide an area around the error, to help it blend in more easily. But not to select areas that you want to remain intact,
Use the Transform tool (T) on the selection, then use the grab handles to move selected area to the correct place.
If you didn't duplicate the layer, it would leave a "hole" in the image (the background colour), but by duplicating the layer, the lower layer automatically hides the hole.
Then I flatten the layers and use the Clone Stamp Tool (S) to help blend the area.

Below is a visual of the above, the red line represents the Lasso tool's selection.

If I encounter a more difficult errors, I do the above, but use extra cloning to "move" an object in the image and then clone out the objects original location. I had to do this in the second 360 shown above. The were some hanging cables in front of the seats in front the the wooden screen, that were miles apart from each other.
