Leguna Amarga

We stayed at an estancia in Patagonia at the Leuna Amarga. I couldn't help thinking I was on the film set of Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings'.

The monochome is a stitch of four images using Photoshop CS5s Photomerge. It took 30 seconds to shoot and 30 seconds to stitch. Patience is not high on my virtues so if its not fast I'm not interested.
Tips for stitching:
  • Shoot in Manual mode
  • Manual aperture
  • Manual shutter speed
  • Manual focus
  • Manual white balance
  • Overlap images by 30%
  • Use a 50mm to 70mm lens range
  • Carry a block of chocolate to reduce stress
