How to take Long Exposure Panoramic Photos & my NEW Photography Guides

[@AttilioRuffo]

Have you ever tried to take Long Exposure Panoramic Photos?

[@pablomrg]

I'm going to try for sure, inspiring video

[@John-Shutterlyphotos]

Not yet, I need to get out more and this will be on my list to do.

[@Emmermacher]

Hello Attilio. No, I'm sorry here. I don't have any ND-filter for my camera. For panorampicture I use the panoramamode of the camera - freehand. Most times this works... Have a nice evening 😊 Dirk

[@AttilioRuffo]

[@angelorondini5835]

Not long exposure yet, I just bought a filter, I'm going to try

[@richardrankin7488]

As always thank you. A pleasure to be entertained and informed.

A nodal slide to prevent parallax is the best.

[@monteestowes1245]

Only just recently stumbled upon this channel and it's easily one of my favorites. Your videos are not only extremely informative and easy to follow, they're incredibly calming. Thank you for creating this channel. Also, just purchased your guides.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank You 🙏

[@paolasmith2052]

Will be buying these guides for sure! Thanks :)

[@AttilioRuffo]

[@pirlouit21]

I just purchased your two guides. What a great job you've done. It's a real pleasure to watch your videos.

[@Ankanmacro]

[@julietlewis7814]

I purchased the guides this morning and am so delighted with the content and presentation thank you Attilio. Now I feel I really understand histograms for the first time. My previous knowledge was very “wobbly. Am going to spend the week practising and look forward to the ongoing learning provided by the guides, which are so user friendly. Grazie mille!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Happy to hear this Juliet! 👍

[@John-Shutterlyphotos]

Wow! Oh mio dio! So beautiful, Attilio! I love these courses you have created, affordable and so helpful. Very kind of you to share your artistic knowledge to inspire us all.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks mate!

[@MichaelSlaunwhite]

excellent video. I will be coming back here when I want to make a pano.

[@AttilioRuffo]

👍

[@harry_wardd]

Attilio this is absolutely awesome. The video is great but wow these guides look excellent! The way you’ve designed and constructed them sets them apart from almost any other photography guide and editing guide I’ve come across. The cutting edge voice search, translations, on the go access - so so much better than the usual pdf downloads you get with other photographers. You deserve everything coming from this, as well as the new partnerships you’ve formed since you’ve relaunched the channel this year. Excellent work my friend 🙌🙌

[@AttilioRuffo]

thanks a lot mate!

[@evanmclafferty3020]

Once again, brilliant, I really like the people on the rocks, they make it stand out so much.

[@AttilioRuffo]

[@2DogAle]

I just want to say thank you. I love your videos and making a check list of things to try from them. Cheers, Rob.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks 🙏

[@adriennedragophotography]

Ciao, Attilio!! I just purchased the guides! It’s great to have everything covered in one place and I don’t have to search all over KZbin for specific topics. Thank you so much for putting these out for us. I can’t wait to dive into the guides. Grazie mille!!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks dear Adrienne! I hope you will like them... 😍

[@donnakaluzniak2738]

Thank you for creating your two new guides! Looking forward to completing them. And thank you for making them so affordable. Love your photography and videos.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Donna! :-)

[@kyliepatton7650]

YES. I needed these guides in my life. I'm always searching through videos trying to find something I vaguely remember. Just bought mine! Looking forward to checking them out.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Here you go, Kylie! 😍

[@satyajitbhadraroy7723]

[@gospelgunsk9195]

I don't understand the negative thumbs down. I enjoy the info. Thanks

[@AttilioRuffo]

Don’t worry about that! 😍

[@stephencardarelli5131]

I'm so excited for this! I've struggled with getting the hang of lightroom after using Photoshop for so many years, so having a dedicated guide for lightroom should hopefully help me get over that hump!

[@AttilioRuffo]

👍

[@DinoPozo]

I'm completely agree with you Attilio, the conditions are not good sometimes but the nature and the environment have another points of view. Therefore, I usually recommend to study the location and admire it to see the potential and the various possibilities that it will give us before making our landscape photography. Great video as always by the way.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks 🙏

[@ronaldsand3000]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, techniques and experience to help capture such marvellous images

[@AttilioRuffo]

Many thanks!

[@GillesQuennevilleGQ]

The tree problem is from the parallax distortion that create gosting , not the long exposure. That is why you have to use a nodal slide.

[@paulbell9957]

Beautfiul final image mate 😊

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks 🙏

[@richardpesce5325]

Really great technique, Attilio! I will put it to good use. Looking forward to using your guides. Thanks for producing them.

[@AttilioRuffo]

My pleasure!

[@tomubashir]

Fantastic!

[@AttilioRuffo]

🙏

[@franciscomeseguergarcia8186]

The guides will be a good self gift!!!! I'm sure they will be very usefull and interesting.

[@AttilioRuffo]

I hope so!

[@keithpinn152]

Hi Attilio: Thanks for creating and sharing this video. I love shooting long exposure images but I haven't had too many occasions to mix long exposure & pano techniques together. I will certainly try this out. I have also purchased your new training video series and I really like the way that you put this information together. While I am an experienced photographer I am always open to seeing new teaching styles and content, and you have done a wonderful job on this material. I also just received my new T-Shirt and the quality of the product is exceptional. Cheers, Keith Pinn (Canada)

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Keith! I am glad you like the PhotoTee and the new guides. I appreciate your support 🙏

[@lactech27]

Very beutiful place. The video about panorama long exp.. was very awesome. Thank you so much for the explanation of the post procesing. Have a nice day..

[@AttilioRuffo]

Glad you liked it

[@ismailfirdaus269]

Thank you…..!

[@conniechristenson4833]

I am grateful to find your channel. Thank you! I will check out the guides as well. I took many panoramas during our historic snowfall year but not with long exposure. But I do have a question. Is the 120 second expose per image?....you have 7 images so the panorama image took 14 minutes? What if the light changes? Can you adjust exposures on each image? That is always a nagging situation I have with any panoramas. Thank you.

[@michelleliu7970]

Entertaining and informative at the same time. Will check out the photography guides. Thank you.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Awesome, thank you!😍

[@jpdj2715]

7:06 - I bought that thing a couple years ago. I have this Manfrotto ballhead 055 - part magnesium, light and very sturdy - with a quick release (QR) that's compatible with nothing and doesn't hold an L-bracket with Arca QR mount elegantly. Well, this disc in the video has Arca QR. And, the screw it came with, turned out to fit the Manfrotto head. So, I took the Manfrotto QR plate of, leaving only the stud on the ball and mounted the Sunwayfoto disc. Now the ballhead became a fast leveling base with single row panorama option. As I also have a 3D (multi-row) panorama "head", I can take a nodal slide from that set and have nodal rotation with very easy and fast stitching.

[@conniechristenson4833]

Also....are you using a 10 or 15 ND filter? Thanks

[@pattymattes7124]

You made it work. Beautiful image!!!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Patty!

[@rickdeed5656]

very well explained I will give it a go, but you may be able to assist with a little information on how you calculate were to line up each shot once you have your ND filter attached

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks. Next time will do that too…

[@krishnaiyerphotography2037]

Amazing course content thanks Attilio.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks 🙏

[@jerrykunz9538]

Hello Attilio, do you have a reference to the panoramic base you are using on the video? Thanks.

[@amajsen]

hey For pano you should use quick release plate nodal..its cheap and very effective :-)

[@marcellarey]

Nice tips! Congratulations on the new guides. I got mine :) Thanks Attilio

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Marcella! 😍

[@jpdj2715]

Stitching in Lightroom. I discovered that Photoshop could stitch a panorama that Lightroom could not. Ps may have a very simple algorithm but it works out really well and is smart in several ways without deep intelligence. When are you likely to run into Lr limitations? With sharp patterned, still sharp, foregrounds, shot without nodal slide.

[@cmteairlines]

Just acquired the guides. I'm excited to start studying!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Have fun!

[@edmontonian5270]

So, have you moved back to Italia permanently?

[@Mr1970msa]

[@AttilioRuffo]

[@Mr1970msa]

Purchased your guides also look to be just what I’ve been looking for👌

[@AttilioRuffo]

@@Mr1970msa awesome!

[@MrBorderman01]

Attilio thanks for the idea. The waves have always been the biggest issue when creating pano of beaches. Never thought to use long exposures which will help to blend the waves.

[@AttilioRuffo]

👍

[@EnricoPozzo]

I purchased the guides and I look forward to learn from these. Grazie Mille!!!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Awesome!

[@scotteldridge5243]

are these books available for kindle?

[@ismailfirdaus269]

Good day sir,I am very intresting in your gear and all your properties to back up your journey to take fotoes. What is the name of the overlay equipment, so it could make rotating 30 degree of your ballhead. Sorry of my poor English, as make you could understand what I meant.

[@pablomrg]

Nice video and great shot, as usual! Do you have any suggestion about min and max exposure time to avoid strange effects while merging the shots? For example moving clouds can be tricky to handle with in a pano. What you think about that?

[@AttilioRuffo]

Good point, topic for another video...

[@AndreWirawan]

Hola Attilio, I usually use the Fill Edge option when using Panorama Merge in LR (10:24), it helps to merge images in full format, though we do cropping at the end....:) Cheers

[@paulsmustache]

Well done as usual. A pano head will be ordered. I love train travel. Too many years on planes has burned me out on air travel. I use Luminar products but will purchase your books my friend.

Hi, these look great 👍. Q: do they work offline on phone / tablet? And can I also use them on my laptop? Or only on one device? Is it an app or a PDF or some other platform?? They sounds great 👍 would love to purchase

[@darshanodedara5330]

Ohh.. I would really love to purchase that guide once I complete my studies ,and I'll fulfill my dream of being an amateur photographer.. THANKS Attilio..

Hi Attilio. What was the Brand of the panorama head you fitted to your tripod. Great video.

[@willemakit48]

Hi Attilio, was busy for the last few weeks and almost missed this and your offer. Great video, as usual, and picked up your books online, really looking forward to your 201 versions :-) Love the way you explain and go through your process. thanks!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank You!

[@inesschipper5256]

Looking forward to use this guides, just bought them...

[@AttilioRuffo]

Hope you like them!

[@photonspark]

Howdy, do your guides apply to shooting with mirrorless micro four thirds? Or is it more focused on full frame dslr cameras?

[@AttilioRuffo]

They do, the foundation of photography are the same with every camera! :-)

[@thatdronedude3388]

Attilio, in this video there is a pano at the 6m mark; a B&W waterfall of sorts, is this shot available to purchase in colour? Also, bought your guides, thanks so much for putting them together :)

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Steve… I do have the color version of that image… maybe write me an email! 👍

[@bartjes2509]

Thanks for sharing ! Your photo of Godafoss includes clouds and I wonder how that is stitched properly since due to the long exposure the clouds have moved quete drsatically before you take the next shot or do you take wind direction into account as well ?

[@pinve]

Hi Attilio. First of all I’ve created my account on your website and buy already the bundle (you will see it as Giuseppe, the same who bought your “slow your shutter speed” tee :-))). Impossible not to buy the guides considering the price. So thanks for that. Just one question about the video: why didn’t you used the “boundary warp” and the “fill edges” option with your pano? Many thanks for all your contents!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Giuseppe!!!

[@vhobus]

Great! Thanks for sharing. Salutos desde Brazil

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks!

[@geoffhoward2171]

Hi Attilio, as always a most informative and interesting video (How do you do it so regularly?). I have one comment / question regarding the bush along the top, I like you rather liked the idea, so could you have shot the same series with a fast shutter and blended the two series together?

[@bobcoggin4618]

Brill 👍🏻

[@AttilioRuffo]

👍

[@coolsandeepcool]

Can't wait to see your guides! Great video as always. Does a TIF or TIFF file have the same flexibility as a RAW file for editing? Until now, I have always edited my RAW images first, synced the settings, formed the panorama, and then finished the image in Photoshop.

[@AttilioRuffo]

The RAW file has more flexibility for sure!

[@michaelhochsprung1601]

I have to do same pano too 👍😅

[@AttilioRuffo]

👍

[@francescad4054]

Great video Attilio. And thanks for creating the guides. I love the place that you took your shot from, and those trees , I really love them, so it's a pity to see them go. Maybe this is a bad idea, but I just thought of something, given the cloudless sky, wouldn't it have been possible to take a second pano with a regular exposure for the upper part with the trees in it and blend it in PS with the long exposure bottom part? Is it feasible? Thanks Attilio. Ciao !

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Francesca. Yes could have done that, but I just didn’t think of it ! :-(

[@larrymcgauley3719]

hate to say this but where do i find where to buy your guides sir?

[@AttilioRuffo]

Here you go attilioruffo.retrieve.com/store

[@zemekiel]

Your new guides looks awesome, however, there is one problem for me. I shoot Fujifilm, so I use Capture One. Is that Lightroom guide general enough that the info could be applied to C1? Btw, those long exposure panoramas are amazing!

[@AttilioRuffo]

I have to be honest...I don't know capture one enough to tell you!

[@mauro.orlando]

Nice video, really inspiring. I don't like so much panorama photos but combined with long exposure they improve a lot. Should try indeed! You said overlapping shots by 30% by I see quite more in this example and my experience with highly overlapped images is not so good (i use limiting it to about 15%). I'm really curios to see how the photo merge process deals with shots so long exposed with light conditions that may change and textures that don't match (think for instance at waves that may differ quite a lot from one shot to the other). Maybe here comes a large overlap of images (I guess yours in Manarola overlapped by 60-70%), isn't it?

[@AttilioRuffo]

Maybe some photos were overlapped by 40%, the merging worked out pretty well...

[@francescoaltobelli1569]

Hi Attilio, lovely place, super shots! Just a question.. have you ever tried pano-heads? Centering the nodal point of your lens you can merge easily the photos in PP. Byeee

[@AttilioRuffo]

I actually haven’t yet!

[@evenaicantfigurethisout]

you won't be able to do this with fast moving clouds/ fast moving water etc. due to discontinuities that will inevitably arise from one frame to the next.
