Hi Sam,

You can just send an email to the mailing list without answering to a previous message -- then you have a new thread.

In your old image there is a foreground, so the camera must have been at a fixed position. Doing something like that from different view points that are metres apart and without substantial artefacts shouldn't be possible. Depending on the distance to the nearest objects, and the goal of the photo, the outcome may be fine of course.

cheers, lukas wirz

Thanks Lucas. I will try to start a new thread and explain what I want to do  
I’m trying to attach the panorama that I took 12 years ago.  Now I want to do 
something similar  I don’t yet know how to start a new thread but I’ll try to 
figure that out.

I’m sorry if this is the wrong way to ask, but I am trying to find out how to 
ask for advice concerning using Hugin to put together a panorama for SkySafari. 
 Years ago I used Hugin to create a panorama for SkySafari but now I want to do 
it again, but this time I need to take the pictures from eight different places 
on my condominium rooftop (because there’s a large structure on the roof) and 
then stitch them together.

Please someone tell me how I should ask for help.

Thanks and aloha,

Hmm, you'll have to optimize your panorama for Translation. That's how Hugin 
handles your situation, where the camera moves between photos. It's not 
something I've done much of, I'm sure other folk on the list are better 
resources about that.

I think you'd have to explain your setup a bit.  I assume you are taking photos 
of the night sky, and anything on earth is irrelevant?  Then your camera is 
effectively not moving (ie the sky is the same from all corners of your roof) 
and you should be able to optimise the pano without translation.  If you are 
taking photos of a flat surface from different points of view, you need 
translation, and if you take photos of a 3D scene from different points of view 
there is probably no good solution.

Apart from that, start a new thread when you have a new question.  If you 
answer to a different question and change the topic that will be displayed 
wrongly for some people.

cheers, lukas wirz
