Panoramic - how did they do it?

Anyone know how Michael Nichols stitched the photos together for his redwood pano? Sequoias: Snow Tree - Portrait - Pictures, More From National Geographic Magazine

I'd like to do something similar along a 10 block stretch of a street. Parallaxing is the real challenge.

Some software can handle some parallax errors.

Anyone have any ideas which? Photoshop doesn't seem to get the job done.

It has been a few years since that was shot. As I recall, he used a camera that was moved up,up,and up, in another tree, thus keeping the center of the field of view relatively "squared-up", so to speak, along the giant tree's 247 foot height.

Microsofts' ICE has three Planar Camera Motion options... not sure if that's the same or not.

Autostitch might handle this type of thing.

May have used a wide format camera

Not familiar with this image's history, but this method is the only one that makes sense.
