Wimbledon Photostitch of Henman Hill (Aorangi Terrace)

Click image to enlarge. If you zoom in you can see a blurry London skyline to the left and Canary Wharf to the right side of it. The match on the screen is between Rafael Nadal and Andreas Beck, a first round clash.

I started using Autostitch a couple days ago and it's absolutely amazing!!! It's a small download, free, so easy-to-use and stitches images like these in just a matter of seconds. I can't believe I didn't discover it earlier. But I suppose better late than never. Not surprisingly I've since gone nuts with it and am working my way through all my photos dating back to 2005, searching for potential panoramic material. This one's from June 2008.

Thanks for that advice! I won't be posting any new panoramas for a while because I don't currently own a camera but will bear it in mind for the future. I used ICE for the image above and the Autostitch result was better as the ICE image curved downwards on the left side and it had to be cropped more than the one above in order to get rid of all the black bits. I'll need to fiddle around a bit and learn from trial and error.

You can play with the ICE image to minimize your losses. Click on the cube, near the 'File' menu, to adjust the perspective. Moving all the images at once will often help you bend the stitched shot into a shape that allows you to take out an entire rectangle without loss.
