I know that you were using a tripod I read both the previous article and this one. I am the James that suggested the tourist thing. I just still want to see an awesome picture of NYC street with no one in it that's all. Thanks for the article and the time that you are putting into it to show the extent of the application.

As for the tripod, it helps with the process in terms of the registration of the images. (Although I should point out that the app is supposed to be able to compensate for small shifts in camera position/perspective.) The software itself seems to work as advertised. I'm dying to try this at a tourist attraction to see how well it'll work. I suspect you'd need to take a bunch of shots if there were a lot of people around while you were shooting. As for your final sentence, uh, no. I have no interest in misleading anyone, nor do I have any interest in or connection with the software co. Implicit in your statement is the notion that I'd take a shot with no one in the frame and say, "It worked!" Why would I bother? Much more importantly, why would I want to purposely mislead my subscribers and regular readers? I would not do that. James,

I am not a skeptic but it just needs a really busy picture to see how well it can work. Like in your previous post you could see a headlight of one of the cars just wanna see what happens when there are lots of objects in one area. This post doesn't help since you have it on a tripod which makes it easy to take a single picture with no one in it. Awesome thanks for the update.
