I saw this on the Canon forum Srika excellent work. Nice display of quality HDR that's not overcooked like most.

I seriously could have spent a whole day at Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal - maybe a few days - was on a time restraint and this was a quick panoramic

Srika,

The Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal image above...

What was your process for getting both the panorama images and the bracketing?

Assuming a 3 shot Left to Right panorama collection (for the sake of argument), was it Left (0, +1, -1) Center (0, +1, -1) Right (0, +1, -1) or do you do it differently?

Then, once you have the images do you compile the 3 panoramas first (0, +1, -1) and then process for HDR or something else?

If it's the "srika method" and it is 'secret sauce' no worries, just wondering if it's something you might share.

eh I don't keep secrets like that - we're all in this together - ask me anything -

For HDR panorama here is my process:

1. Import images into LR
2. Export images to Photomatix for HDR process
3. Tweak some more in LR
4. Export images to hard drive
5. Perform panoramic stitch process and tuning
6. Tweak in PS

Here are the original images:

also I don't remember if I shared here but here are my Photomatix presets - which you may find helpful - this is a ZIP file

http://bit.ly/176Kck3

I usually start from one of these and then tweak from there.

Others have told me they have been helpful in their process.

Awesome, thanks.

So, how do you do the actual panorama frames capture? are you doing single exposure HDR here or is this bracketed?

those are 3 exposures - I usually do 3. Sometimes if I am feeling ambitious I will do 5 or more.
