The -morph is not a true 'morph' as you see in movies. It is only
a color morphing trasnform. Objects in the image doed not 'move'.
For that you need a much more complex bit of software which allows you
to specify what parts of the first image is to match up to the parts in
the final image. That is 'warp' merge the two images as well as color
merge the images.
For that I suggest you look at the Xmorph program.
That is not to say IM can't do that. It just does not have the
facilities to do this simply. YET.
The newest developments in the Distortion Operators, may in the future
allow things such as true image morphing (pixel warping and well as
color transitions.
The same development will also allow for the (eventual) addition of
panorama image overlaying (overlaying multiple photos of a scene to
create a larger image), though that will also require 'image
registration' to locate simular point pairing for distorted overlays.
For some examples of new additions in distortions see.

At this moment I am working on additional sub-functions for a major
quality improvement in the output results.
