Monte's Motors Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Find a place that would make a good background to show your builds. Take at least 2, if not 3 pictures. When clicking the camera, take the next one beside it. In a sweeping picture look. You will need to do this to make the background big enough to take a picture of. Here's a picture of our water tower from a store parking lot. This was my first try at this idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie8575 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Another helpful tip if you don't have a good computer or photo-gluing capacity is to find a panoramic camera in 35 mm, which, when placed properly, will scale out nicely for a backdrop. to use this, though, you must use a tripod. Also, make sure you indicate that you used a panoramic camera when you take the film to be developed, or they'll make a mess of negatives. Another option if you have a friend who's a well-heeled photographer is to use a Linhof Technical camera, which has an adjustable depth of field, in case you can't adjust your position.
