When working with multiple exposures it is critical to keep the camera in EXACTLY the same position. HDR and panorama photography without a tripod is probably not worth the effort. The closer the object to the camera, the more important this is. Your photograph contains a pretty close-up view. When doing panoramas of closeby objects when a tripod may not even be sufficient, since the LENS needs to be in exactly the same place and most of the time the camera BODY is attached to the tripod, thus moving the lens in an off-centre arc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
