Duomo Panoramics…

by on Feb.20, 2018, under Life, Photography

I was waiting till it got darker so that the streets of the city of Florence would be lit up against a deep twilight sky. I only had to wait ten minutes or so before it started getting good. Here are a couple more Duomo panoramics as it moved towards night.

This panorama (@ 5:15PM) is comprised of seven vertical frames wide with each frame composed of three (1EV) bracketed exposures for a total of 21 frames.

Whereas before I was shooting in Aperture priority with varying ISO. As it’s now much darker I’ve switched to Manual (Auto ISO disabled) and fixed the ISO (800 in this pano) and locked Aperture (wide open at f/4) and let shutter speed fluctuate for the HDR brackets.

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.

This panorama is five minutes later (@ 5:20PM) and is comprised now of five horizontal frames wide with each frame composed of five (1EV) bracketed exposures for a total of 25 frames.
