Panoramic

I am testing out some stitching software called Panorama Factory. If you take a sequence of photos, it (supposedly) puts them all together and corrects the exposure to make one seamless panoramic picture. It would have helped if I had a tripod and a real camera, but I didn't so I figured I'd see how much the software could help correct my shortcomings. I tried it first in auto mode, and the results were less than splendid. So I did it manually, then adjusted the exposure in Photoshop, which seemed to turn out a lot better. With exposure lock and a tripod I think I could fix most of the 'seam' effect. Click the pic above to see the big one. Just for reference, this picture of Banff was done by a pro, and is one of my all time favorites. Let me know what you think!
