Hello Everyone Ronnie with RWiggin Photography Tips and Tricks again. Today I want to show
you a cool feature in Photoshop Elements 12 and it's merging photos together to create
a Panorama and what I did out in the field I shot multiple photos from left to right.
So what were going today is merge those together and create a nice Panorama. So the first thing
we are going to do open up Photoshop 12 Elements 12 and if you will go to the enhance you'll
click photomerge and photomerge panorama. Now I usually leave it in the Auto setting
you may want to explore and use these others, but I usually use the auto setting and what
you want to do is find your files your photos that you took out in the field and just browse
and you'll navigate to that folder. I have some that I already have to go. So what we'll do is take these photographs
here just select the first one and the last one holding the shift key down that will select
all of them and if you'll notice it's populated all of them into the source file box and we'll
click Okay. So no we'll let software do what it does to merge them all together. You'll
notice over here on the right side how it's starting to bring all of the photos in.
Now you'll notice it's aligning all the selected layers based on the content it's just basically
lining up each photo and momentarily we'll have a panoramic image here and the we'l have
one more step.Okay
if you'll notice we got some areas where it merged all of the photos together and of course
you don't want your photos to look like that. By default this will come up and it says clean
edges would you like to automatically fill in the edges of your panorama. Now you can
check this and it want come up again I always let it ask me and click Yes and we'll what
it'll do is clean it up and fill it all in for you. So how it cleaned up all of the edges
here now you got one spot here that may need to be cleaned up. We could uh just go up here
and use this Lasso tool and just you'll start and eventually we are going to select it.
Now if you'll notice the white blinking lines around it were going to do is just use our
left mouse button and take it up now if you'll hold the control and alt button down at the
same time and then left mouse and it will grab a piece of that area and hit the escape
to remove the lines and there you go it's all cleaned up. Now we have a nice beautiful
view of the Teton Mountain Range located in Jackson, Wyoming. So there you have it. Thank
You once again for stopping by RWiggin Photography and check back for other videos later.
