About Photomerge
The Photomerge™ command combines several photographs into one continuous image. For example, you can take
five overlapping photographs of a city skyline, and then assemble them into a panorama. The Photomerge command
can assemble photos that are tiled horizontally as well as vertically.

Taking pictures for use with Photomerge

when taking pictures for use with Photomerge:
Overlap images sufficiently
Images should overlap by approximately 25% to 40%. If the overlap is less, Photomerge
may not be able to automatically assemble the panorama. However, keep in mind that the images shouldn’t overlap
too much. If images overlap by 70% or more, it can be difficult to work with them, and blending may not be as
effective. Try to keep the individual photos at least somewhat distinct from each other.
