Aerial 360 Sunset Over Beqa Lagoon

[NickHobgood]

Had an awesome sunset last weekend. The Gopro did not catch the richness of the colors. I was using a polarizing filter but think I should have used a ND4 filter for the color. Any tips for improving sunset imagery ? Click here or the image for the interactive virtual reality panorama here

Crazy question what did you use to generate that picture? 360 immersive is impressive.

Thanks @Spectre95 . I use PTGui panoramic software. There is a good free stitching software called HUGIN. It is powerful but the user interface a bit less intuitive. Once stitched, I use Photoshop to fill in the hole in the sky where the gimbal does not cover.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it tonight. So you shoot in stills or in video mode?

I have done both. Photos with my daughter's GPH3+Black then using video stills with my GPH3+Silver because the photo option was not supported by Solo. The quality was really bad with video stills so I upgraded to GPH4Black and do photos again. The quality is much better.
