Make a Panorama?

image

Go under the File menu, under Automate, and choose Photomerge. In the resulting dialog (seen above right), click on the Browse button and find the individual images you want to combine into one single panoramic image, click Open, and then click OK. As long as you overlapped each individual image by 20% when you took the shots, Photoshop will combine them into a seamless pano. Now, it’s very possible that this left gaps on one or more sides of your image. So, the next step is usually to use the Crop tool (C) to crop away the gaps. If they’re mostly in places like the sky or in grass at the bottom of the image, instead of cropping the image, try this: Get the Magic Wand tool (press Shift-W) and click in one of those white gaps to select that area. Now, press-and-hold the Shift key and click in any other gappy areas until they are all selected (pressing-and-holding that Shift key is what lets you add to your first selection). Next, go under the Select menu, under Modify, and choose Expand. Enter 4 pixels and click OK (this helps set up the next step for greater success). Now, go under the Edit menu and choose Fill. When the dialog appears, choose Content-Aware from the Contents pop-up menu, click OK, and either something amazingly good will happen—it fills in the gaps incredibly realistically (using the area around the gaps as a guide of what should fill them in)—or it will be an absolute train wreck. So, all you can really do is undo it by pressing Command-Z (PC: Ctrl-Z), and then go back to the “crop away the gaps” method I mentioned earlier. It’s worth trying either way, because you’ll be surprised at how well this works a lot of the time, but of course, it just depends on the image.
