went out yesterday to try a few panos
these are test panos only, using small jpegs (640x428) from lightroom stitched with PS2
all comments and hints/tips much appreciated

Great panos, love the clouds

if you like to try, there is a free stitching software Hugin which may give you better control (but may add more complexities) link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hugin/?abmode=1

Good tests. YOu have captured good detail in the contrast. They do seem a bit over-sharpened though.

panos look good well done

thanks for the link, first try worked very well, it looks like a good program

thank for the heads up on the sharpening, must remember to turn off sharpen till the end of the process
I had input sharpening in lightroom then moderate output sharpening for screen on the small jpegs I sent to photo shop
then input sharpening when I brought the stitched pano back for final editing in lightroom and final output sharpening when I saved it for the web plus flickr has resized it and added to the problem

anyone else with any comments ?
