Vineyard Panorama

Panoramas are actually something I have dealt with very little in my years in photography.  I have done this work a few times but overall I am not a landscape photographer and pano shots tend to be synonymous with landscape.  Having said that all of my shots this time are landscapes.  Taken late afternoon at Orfilia Winery in Escondido, Ca.  I attempted to do some other work with panos that i was not as successful with but i plan on going back and attempting again.  I am actually quite happy with these images looking from their park outside of the tasting room over the now wilting grapevines, picked free of their fruit waiting for winter.  In San Diego it will not be long before these vines have dropped this years leaves, and begin the winter hibernation.  In San Diego that hibernation is brief and before long they will be in full bloom again, ready to create the next vintage.  These were photographed on or near the “golden hour” in early fall.

On the work i discovered that this can be overdone a little and will begin to confuse photoshop after a point.  Ensure there are obvious points that the software can line up to create the panorama.  I wanted to do a panorama of a wall they had at the winery but so far have been unsuccessful in creating the panorama itself.
