Naval Fighter Plane photo joining

Naval Fighter Plane

During my visit to the Fleet Air Museum for photographs to include into my book project I noticed that the Grumman Martlet was situated within the hangar on its own with no obstructions from other Aircraft. As the background was vibrant with colours and textures I realised this would make a good subject for another photo joining experiment.

Once all the photos were stitched together I tried to crop the image into an oval shape, but unfortunately I did not take enough photographs of the background. With hindsight I could have used the same photographs of the floor overlapping each other multiple times to complete it, but it would have left gaps at the top.

When you are looking through the camera lens panning around the room it is difficult to know whether you have captured enough images. You only realise when joining the photographs that you have gaps together within the image.

Next time I perform this type of experiment I will try photographing the scene two or three times to ensure I cover all parts of the image or I will draw a grid of the image either mentally or on paper and tick off the areas that I have photographed.
