• Compose each frame so that it overlaps 30 to 50 % of the adjoining image. Try to keep the vertical misalignment to within 10 % of the image height.

•Do not include moving items in the overlap.

•Do not try to stitch images that include both distant and close items. Objects may appear warped or doubled up.

•Make the brightness in each image consistent. The final image will appear unnatural if the difference in bright- ness is too great.

•For good results, pan (swivel) the camera to take successive shots.

•To shoot close-ups, slide the camera over the subject, keeping it parallel as you move.
