Here after the lpoty controversy by a turkish photographer....the photos looked nice to me and personally o dont think of this as cheating, especially in the age of AI generated images and even image editing. I actually was looking dor affinity photo tutorial but i guess the techniques are same no matter what software you use. And i did learn that so thank you. Nicely explained 😊

Excellent demonstration of focal legth blending. A great example as you had to deal with the light across the lake as well.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Cheers John!

[@melissam731]

Excellent tutorial! This is really helpful!! I like how you can get the rocks in with a wide-angle but not how small everything looks in the distant. Thanks for posting.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks a lot for the comment Mel :)

[@DrShred24]

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

[@nsfotographi]

Never heard of it...thanks for the video...will try it out some time

[@MegaDwilkinson]

Lovely image Will, and would never have thought of using the warp tool that way - awesome mate

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@gaetanoscalfidi]

Brilliant! I never heard of this blending technic before. Thanks for sharing!

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Thanks. Really helps with the wide angle distortion, but unfortunately this technique can get severely abused and we end up seeing impossible perspectives and scale :/

[@cb9831]

Thank you - again - for making these videos.
It doesn't matter which one I have watched there is always, at least - & often much much more - a little kernel of knowledge / an idea to take away !
From perspective, composition or other high brow information - to learning about the Shift Key & finally getting control of that 'Bonkers' control in ACR - Colour Grading ^_^ !!!
I'm sleeping much more soundly ^_*

Why don’t you use the warp tool to stretch the mountains on the 16mm image to increase their size? Solves the light issue and you are only working with one file.

[@WilliamPatinoPhotography]

Because you’re stretching instead of getting a larger perspective with a lens. The warp tool is going to primarily drag the upper part of the mountains, leaving the lower, which creates a different mountain. I’ve seen this applied before and it’s a very inaccurate representation of a place. Ok for minor tweaks but not for something like this in my opinion.
