5 snapshots, 1 panorama of Tossa Photo

Why do you think I count 3 snapshots here? :D I give you a hint: I used 3 shots to make the panorama.

Isn't this place beautiful despite those big apartment blocks or hotels and that crowd on the beach? We have been experiencing cold and rainy weather, so I feel like posting this image that breathes Summer by every pixel.

WS's:
• #1 - The original shots used on the stitch.
• #2 - another view of the town.

Oi Jose,

Perfeito trabalho de composicao destas 5 fotos. A composicao esta belissima com uma vista invejavel da praia e do forte e os turistas fotografando completam tao bem a cena. Belos tons de azul.

Abracos,

Flavia

Hello Jose,
this is a really great work, I like what you did here, the panorama that you show us is magnificent, an amazing seascape with excellent natural colors and a great DOF.
Well done dear friend.
Have a great evening.
Giorgio

asajernigan (13929) 2009-04-16 9:38

Jose,
This is a great large post. Your stitching work is very good creating a seamless panorama. Your composition is great placing the photographer and her subject in one corner while including the full scene on the other. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

Olà Jose!
Magnifique panoramique et merveilleux endroit, c'est encore plus beau en grand. Très bonne composition avec la tour d'un côté et le mur surmonté par l'arbre à droite. La perspective est excellente et les couleurs sont superbes. Beau travail de montage.
Félicitations!... et bonne soirée,

Hola José,
Una bella perspectiva donde se refleja muy bien los bellos colores del mar en la Costa Brava. Estupendo trabajo con una luz magnífica y gran profundidad.
Me gusta mucho el WS donde se ve la ciudad, merecía estar también como foto principal.
Un abrazo,
Charo

sunamoon (5053) 2009-04-16 10:00

Kielia (8201) 2009-04-16 11:34

Hi Jose,
your gallery of Tossa is incredibly beautiful and I wonder if this is already the highlight or do you still have some more fantastic impressions to offer? Great idea of the panorama with these strong colors of the South. Excellent photo work! TFS!
Warm regards
Harriet

jaywalker (12186) 2009-04-16 12:31

Hi Jose, A lovely panoramic format, great architecture & a super view across the bay, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Docarmo (8814) 2009-04-16 20:29

Olá José,
Que trabalho perfeito! E a qualidade da imagem, como sói acontecer com tuas fotos, é de nível superior!
E o lugar, diga-se de passagem, é esplêndido! As pessoas presentes ali, embelezaram mais ainda - composição primorosa! A versão grande é espetacular!
Parabéns!
MCV
P.S.: vi a foto que a Charo tirou do ilustre fotógrafo!

delkoo (33988) 2009-04-16 23:16

bonjour josé,

je reste toujours admiratif devant ce travail de montage, qui, effectivement donne de bons résultats, surtout sur la version large qui peret d'apprécier, les couleurs, les détails et la composition .

bon weekend
didier

mikeo (12113) 2009-04-17 1:10

Hello Jose,

What a shot! This place is really lovely, despite the items you have mentioned;) Excellent holiday atmosphere, also thanks to the tourists on the right - they suits here perfectly. It could be an excellent, well selling postcard;)

Well done, perfect stitch job!
Greetings,
Mikeo

AiresSantos (41468) 2009-04-17 4:12

Ola Jose
Um excelente trabalho. Ja agora, qual é o software que usas para fazer as panoramicas ?
Cores e contraste muito bonito. Excelentes detalhes na 'large version'
Bom fim de semana
Aires

Greg1949 (8507) 2009-04-17 4:25

Jose, nice one, certainly worth the LP format. Great color and detail and a lovely composition.

paura (37896) 2009-04-17 4:28

José,
A junção está perfeita, muito bem efetuada. Interessante que o ceu na fotografia da esquerda ficou com um azul ligeiramente mais forte mas acho que isso poderia ter acontecido também se aiagem tivesse sido obtida em uma única fotografia. Linda a paisagem e perfeito o enquadramento. Muito boa.

Abraço

Paulo

sacavem (8102) 2009-04-17 6:45

Olá Jose,

Gosto do trabalho que crias-te as 3 fotos ficaram muito bem, ele há grandes programas :)
Parece-me que já te disse uma vez... que o tamanho é muito grande para os monitores até 17p e assim o LV perde interesse.Por exemplo o ultimo da Charro está perfeito a meu ver no tamanho.
De resto nada a apontar , boa cor, luz e definição.

Nota: não percebi se estiveste com a Charro em Portugal nesta Pascoa. Ela dedica-te uma foto e como sabe que eu gosto muito daquela zona e vou lá algumas vezes, pediu-me desculpa por não me ter avisado.

Um abraço amigo,
Filipe

Romatou (1372) 2009-04-17 8:06

Salut Jose

Du soleil , de la couleur , de l'humour ... pas mal de bons ingrédients dans cet assemblage qui sent bon les vacances. Un travail "léché" qui fonctionne très bien , la vue est large et profonde , et on plonge dedans avec ravissement .

Amicalement ,

edytungkal (4517) 2009-04-17 9:05

Very good work Jose and i would say this panoramic view is very beautiful and of course inclusion those guys is a good idea, its make this picture more appealing. I think nothing could be better. Thanks friend...

Gerrit (35499) 2009-04-17 13:57

Hi Jose,
a wonderful composition, great landscape in appealing colors.
Regards, Gerrit

tober (3902) 2009-04-17 14:54

That's wonderful Jose. But its beauty is only noticable with the larger version. However, you combined very well five snapshots to make this beautiful panorama... The right part of the photo can be another composition subject alone. Excellent work with the scent of th Mediterranean. Best regards, Tolga

rodgerg (23207) 2009-04-17 23:46

Bonjour José,

Superbe image avec un angle de vue et un premier plan très bien choisi ce qui donne une très belle profondeur de l'image. J'aime beaucoup, la scène sur la droite, un élement humain qui crée l'ambiance.
Amitiés,
Roger

Atousa (3434) 2009-04-19 6:39

Salam Jose,

The result is amazingly beautiful! you did a great job..very nice summer atmosphere..congratulations!
Best regards, Atousa

trekks (14262) 2009-04-19 8:13

hi Jose

Wow! This is fantastic view! I like the LV!

It is not easy to get panoramic view out of this kind of scenery shots which may consist of different focal lengths or exposure settings if you are not careful with shooting. I think you have done well with focus point and depth for this stitch job.

I wonder why you used polarizer? I notice a more dark blue sky at the left side. It is more different to match the color tone when CPL is used.

I still like the outcome of your shots and the pano. Great view!

tfs, bill

Loic_bzh (6951) 2009-04-20 1:13

Hi Jose,

nice one! Dramatinc PoV over the city and the beach... Seing a beach with so many people gives me only one wish: to run away as far as possble!!

Have a good day,

Loïc

danyy (68088) 2009-04-20 23:19

Bonjour Jose,
Panoramique très réussi et assemblage parfait, une superbe carte postale de la région sous lumières estivales et couleurs superbes.
Ca sent le balnéaire.
Regards.
Daniel.

JCG (24899) 2009-04-21 0:37

Bonjour José,

Je comprends que cette jeune fille veuille photographier ces parents (je suppose...) sur un paysage si magnifique. Quel vue !!! Et tu as bien eu raison de faire un panorama pour que l'on puisse apprécier chaque détail de ce petit paradis. Les couleurs et la lumière estivale sont parfaites, j'aime beaucoup et ça donne vite envie d'arriver aux vacances... Bravo José et merci pour la photo complémentaire.

Avec toutes mes amitiés et à bientôt,

Jean-Charles

Yar (795) 2009-04-21 10:45

it's a great sunny picture. looking for the summer, thank you. what kind of stitching software are you using ? i like PTGui.

Bluejeans (31663) 2009-04-24 6:25

Oi José ,
Lindo o lugar magnifico para visitar , gostei muito do ponto de visão bem alto com um grande ângulo de visão para o mar e a cidade , este primeiro plano com os turistas a tirar fotos ficou fabuloso , boas cores, parabéns!!
Um abraço Gonçalo

Bom fim de semana

sagar (2299) 2009-04-28 8:20

Hi Jose,
A wondeful pano. Great colors and very well framed.

Sagarneel.

axiotea (15933) 2009-04-29 6:01

Olà José
Une bonne présentation de cet endroit et un cadrage bien fait incluant pas mal de détails à observer, tels que les remparts de la forteresse, la plage bondée de vacanciers, les hôtels, les montagnes à l'arrière qui s'estompent au loin...
C'est intéressant de voir les 3 photos originales que tu as assemblé...
Amitiés
Marilyn

denisn72 (6909) 2009-05-09 6:15

Hello Jose
You made a good job by stitching so many snapshots. Incredible details and sharpness. The colours are so great too! I discovered a great place and the way you present is really stunning. A really good work my friend.!
Best regards
Denis!

zeca (20026) 2009-05-09 20:20

Belo trabalho, José! A panorâmica ficou lindissima e a bela vista merecia algo assim. Cores bonitas e ótimo ver os turistas á direita. A única dificuldade ficou no céu, aliás, sempre um problema nestas montagens. De qualquer forma, uma bela foto!
Abraço,
Zeca

jmdias (18819) 2009-05-11 17:08

zé

linda vista, o local é realmente belíssimo. muito bem feita a composição, lindas cores, luz, nitidez, personagens bem colocados, detalhes bem posicionados, belas cores. perfeição

parbo (10964) 2009-05-13 19:40

Olá José,

Your panorama is an excellent result of just three frames in very good capture and also shows quality of your stitching work. I liked your rich scene while including a wonderful sight full with life. Especially visitors at right part added great value.

Parabéns e Abraço!

Ertugrul

Felip (3905) 2009-05-17 9:16

Olà José,
Soberbia panorámica de la bella ciudad de Tossa de Mar, (la última vez que fuí -en verano, claro!- estuve 45 minutos dando vueltas con el coche buscando aparcamiento, y me fuí sin encontrarlo!)
Espléndidos colores y definición.
Un buen trabajo de "corta y pega" ;)

Saludos

Felip

PixelTerror (86036) 2009-05-31 3:43

Ola Jose
The ca(n)non is still offering a fun photo opportunity as we can see on the right, it also animates this nice and well stitched pano of Tossa, the place I preferred on the Costa Brava.
Have a nice day jY

coco (27612) 2009-06-13 2:42

Hola Jose.

What nice pano and, of course, what nice place.
Anyway, probably the exposure in the three photos was not the same, and still is easy some difference in the pano.
However, nice work and thanks for sharing.

(the alternative view of the city is great too)

xuaxo (5649) 2009-06-14 4:32

Olá José,
Mais um bom trabalho, à Stego! Acho que o único defeito é o céu mais escuro à esquerda.
Também não gosto muito de ver os turistas em pose. Até podiam ficar lá (talvez melhor do que sem ninguém), mas sem estarem a tirar fotos uns aos outros.
Cumprimentos,
Francisco

Yves-triga (3228) 2009-07-07 3:46

Hello jose,
