Nicole, Always very informative and the way you adjust colour is educational. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

[@MartinHarvey]

First time viewer and nicely done especially the “in-filled” support comments.

[@rrr46060]

great tips, thanks

[@LucasPitcher13]

Thanks for this summary Nicole!
I always wondered if there was any way to set a 'reference image' when creating a panorama, so that you can avoid issues with movement in the environment - I do a lot of 'Bokeh-rama' or Brenizer pano's, and LR always seems to choose images with people's strangest expressions, rather than the first image in a series - setting a reference image woudl be perfect.

I merged photos in LRC and got the pano but all the photos I selected disappeared. What did I do wrong?

[@bigpebble]

Any tips for getting consistent exposures in high dynamic range shots? i.e. Sunrises with manual exposure cause some frames to be right on, and others to be to dark resulting in banding when creating a panorama.

[@nicolesy]

It sounds like you're doing it correctly with manual exposure. Shooting directly into a bright light source can make any type of image a little tricky, including sunrises/sunsets with HDR. I'd have to see your original frames and setup to give more specific advice.
