Baker's Lock (Oxford Canal) Interactive Panorama

Baker's Lock is one of the canal locks of the Oxford Canal, close to the exceptionally beautiful Oxfordshire village of Bletchington.

Equipment used:

• Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM lens
• Gitzo G1325 carbon fibre tripod
• Really Right Stuff BH-55 ball head and Multi-Row Pano Elements Package

How it was done:
The photography was done one a summer evening at the canal. Two rows of 7 photos at three different exposures (focal length 15mmm, portrait) were needed for the panorama - the contrast between the bright sky and the shadow areas required <![CDATA[HDR]]> processing.

The resulting images have been edited, then stitched together, edited again, and then turned into a cylindrical panorama.
