And here's a 2 image stitch example which is using Pentax images, Polperro Sail Barn and harbour taken 9 years ago.

lust = just, Freudian slip!

Well that worked well.

It looks a glorious day, I particularly like the fourth image, the overhanging foreground helps 'contain' the fabulous lily pond.

Cheers
Mike
