Photoshop CS4 – Photomerge

One of the most common requirements nowadays is to "stich" images together. Simply put this allows you to overlay multiple images together to create a larger image. If like me you have a point and shoot digital camera, getting those large vistas is more or less impossible to achieve. However using photomerge it allows you to create stunning panaroma shots just like the big expensive SLR cameras on the market. The process of creating a panorama is very straight forward. The problem is "where the heck is it???", well watch this video to find out. This is one of many videos which can be seen at PCTeach.me. Come join the gang!

    Some times i have like lines u can see where the photo’s merged together . how can i get rid of those lines? do you have a vid for that?

    Hi Tederetus,
    Its difficult to say without knowing th images. But the first thing I would do is inspect the images individually and make sure the exposures (light/hues etc) are close to each other. After that you can do a manual merge. At the end of the day this is a wizard so you may have to manual match by adding both images and erasing the troublesome areas. Sorry I cannot be anymore help here as its difficult to say without seeing the images…

    @nesleen7 Sorry about that, I have quickly scanned the video but cannot see the man cut in half, can you tell me at what time in the video this is occuring and will look at sorting?

    @nesleen7 Hi, Thanks for the reply and very sorry for the delay replying work has stopped me from doing anymore on here for a while! You are quire correct at the end of the video there is someone cut off. As this video was to show how to perform a photomerge I will leave it alone. But I will put a follow on video of advanced editing with photomerged images later.

    @tederetus Sorry, I have just re-read your question and understand your issue (I was just being plain stupid). The lines you speak of to they look like a Photo that has been torn up and put back together again? If so, this is fixed by going into the “Layer” menu and selecting “Merge Visible”.

    Sorry for misunderstanding your question! It was the last thing I wanted to do on this channel!

    After the blending has been done try acquiring the whole image and use free transform to square up the image. With free transform open hold the Command?Option key the click on one of the top corner handles and drag away. This will square up the buildings. Have a look at this video youtube.com/watch?v=D22yyMtR5UM this shows how I use free transform.
