NOTE: This image is a panorama of a wooden wall clock with a pendulum and massive brass weights consisting of 2 (vertically overlapping) frames that were merged or stitched in Adobe Photoshop CC 2020 (File ~ Automate ~ PhotoMerge). As a result, this image necessarily underwent some form of digital manipulation. These manipulations may include blending, blurring, cloning, and colour and perspective adjustments. As a result of these adjustments, the image content may be slightly different from reality at the points where multiple images were combined. This manipulation is often required due to lens, perspective, and parallax distortions.

Technical Details / Making of this Image[edit]

  • Camera: Sony α7R IV, 61 Mpixels, sensor size 9904x6336.
  • Lens: Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* FE 55mm F1.8 ZA.
  • Manual Mode, ISO 200, shutter speed 1/3s, aperture 11, bias(=expos.comp.) -0.00, 16-bit RAW (.ARW), WB (white balance) 4750K.
  • Took two images in portrait position with identical focus, overlapping by approx. 50%.
