Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'll find
If you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb
Staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who'd rather go blind
'Cause I am due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes
Till I understand or go blind (till I understand or go blind)

[FR] La passerelle Debilly 360° projection Stereographique
Une photo prise dimanche matin lors d'une Balade Parisienne en compagnie de Michael, David, Thierry et sa filleule, et ma femme Celine.
Merci a tous pour votre patience pendant la prise de la serie de photos qui a permis de realiser ce panoramic.
Avec le soleil levant, les ombres etaient relativement longues et du coup, vous en verrez quelques unes (genantes ou non) sur l'image.
Materiel & Traitement :
K20D avec le 10-17mm fisheye @ 10mm f/8 monte sur la tete panoramique Nodal Ninja 3 Mark 2.
6x5 prises sur trepied a -4EV, -2EV, 0 EV, 2 EV, 4 EV (60? d'ecart angulaire) + 1x5 prises pour le zenith + 3x5 prises pour le nadir. J'ai utilise un script Photoshop excecute sur tous les RAWs. Le script ouvre le RAW dans Adobe Camera RAW, reduit les aberrations chromatiques liees au fisheye, transfert l'image dans Photoshop, applique le plugin Ninja Noise pour reduire le bruit et enfin enregistre l'image en TIF. Les 50 TIF sont ensuite traites en lot pas Photomatix Pro pour obtenir 10 HDR (6 vues pour couvrir 360?, 1 zenith, 3 nadirs). Je melange ensuite 2 nadirs pour reduire l'empreinte du trepied. Le panorama est ensuite assemble avec Hugin puis j'ai utilise Cubic Converter pour recuperer les vues projetees sur un cube afin de supprimer le trepied de la face du bas en utilisant la dernier prise du nadir (faite a main levee) et dont la deformation du fisheye a ete supprimee avec PTLens. J'ai finalement reinjecte la face corrigee dans Cubic Converter pour obtenir le panoramique equirectangulaire. J'ai au final utilise Hugin pour creer cette projection stereographique.
A photo taken Sunday morning during a wandering with the group Balade Parisienne with Michael, David, Thierry and his goddaughter and my wife Celine.
Many thanks to all of you for your patience during the shooting of the set that allow me to realize this panoramic.
With the rising sun, the shadows were relatively long thus you'll see some (annoying or not) on the image.
Material & Processing :
K20D with 10-17mm fisheye @ 10mm f/8 mounted on the Nodal Ninja 3 Mark 2 VR Head.
6x5 shoots on tripod @ -4 EV, -2 EV, 0 EV, 2 EV, 4 EV (60? steps for the rotation) + 1x5 shoots for the zenith + 3x5 shoots for the nadir. I then used a Photoshop action script in batch on all RAWs. The action script open the RAW image in Adobe Camera RAW, reduce the chromatical aberrations created by the fisheye, give the picture to Photoshop, reduce the noise with Ninja Noise plugin, and save the file in TIF. The 50th TIFs are then processed in batch in Photomatix Pro in order to get 10 HDRs (6 for the full 360?, 1 zenith, 3 nadirs). I merge then 2 nadirs to reduce the footprint of the tripod. The panorama is stitched in Hugin then I used Cubic Converter to get the cubic projection faces in order to remove completly the tripod from the bottom face by using the last nadir shot (handled) on which I removed the fisheye deformation with PTLens. I put back the corrected bottom face in Cubic Converter to obtain the equirectangular panoramic image. Finally I used Hugin to create this stereographic projection.
