Good question

That is a really amazing picture, very well done. Thanks!

Great picture! Honestly... how did you do that?

Oh and btw - just to prevent some comments - if somebody asked you how did you take this picture (a law enforcement officer for instance) the proper answer is: I jumped off one roof, did a quick spin with my phone in hand and landed on the next roof - now prove I didn't. :-D

Fantastic !!!!!

LMAO!!!!! Thats a good one!

For this one I took a series of pics (around 60) overlapping each other. You can use Litchi to do this automatically, but I rather do it manually since it takes a bit longer for Litchi to get this task done.
Then import and edit all the shots in Lightroom. One of the good things about Lightroom is that you can Sync (copy and paste) the edits done to one pic to all the photos in a batch. This makes it a lot easier to have the same exposure, color and WB in all the shots. Thats what you want, otherwise you will see the difference between each picture when stitched together. After exporting the batch of shots I used Hugin for Mac to stitch the pano. Then uploaded it to https://kuula.co/ so I could share it with you guys

The image resolution is a bit higher than what I was allowed to upload to https://kuula.co/. Original size is 13184x6592 and the size that they allow to be uploaded is 10000x5000

Way too cool

Pretty cool stuff. Well done, must have taken a while to finish.

Have you done some clever manipulation to blend the top of the images?  Since the Mavic can't take photos above itself.

It took between 3 to 4 minutes to take all the shots, about 1 hour of color editing, around 45 minutes of stitching and another 20 minutes photoshopping the sky.

Yes I did have to use photoshop to add the missing sky data above the Mavic. Usually very little sky would have to be added since the Mavic can look up 30 degrees, but this case since the sky wasn't so nice that night I decided to skip those shots and just go with a generic solid color with a bit of noise to match the surroundings.  

That's so clean, horizon is perfect too. Awesome job again! I know what you mean by evening all the different dng exposures out in a 360. Can take some time. I found you can even do it with the sun in the shot but it sacrifices the sun itself for an equalized picture. But whatever that shot is pro.
