I took this on the US Forest Service Fire Boucher (Booker) lookout tower on Palomar Mt. It was closed to public but luckily my dad works for the Forest service and the gentleman working that day let us up. This is a photo of "the hidden valley" or towns consisting of Valley Center, and Escondido. You can see all the way out to the ocean. This type of photo is a Panoramic shot. I took 27 photos starting from left to right. All of them overlapped each other at least 1 quarter or more. Once I did this the next day I edited it in Photoshop. In Photoshop I went into file and clicked on browse in bridge. Picked out the photos I needed to complete this shot. and Photo-merged them. (go to tools, go down to Photoshop, click photo-merge) Clicked on reposition only. When the photo is done loading I flattened it, then a cropped out the parts I didn't want. I edited the brightness then that's it I was done.
