If you have not already done so click on the Advanced button now to switch to advanced view.Start a new project in PTGui and import a completed sphere as your source image.You will need to have PTGui in advanced mode which can be accessed by clicking the Advanced button in the top right corner of the project assistant tab. TIP: You should create your sphere in PTGui as a TIFF using the maximum resolution possible as this will help you get a better result. Prepare your sphere for editing in Photoshop

These are both paid programs but you should be able to do the same process with open source software such as Hugin and GIMP, I will try to do another post later showing how to do this with open source. What you needed:Īdobe Photoshop (I use CS6 but PSE should also work) No matter what your reason I hope this process helps you out. There are a few reasons you may want to edit either the nadir or zenith of the sphere which may include wanting to add a log, you did not point your camera high or low enough and ended up with holes in your sphere, you have parallax issues at the nadir, or many other things. The zenith is the top point of the sphere or the place directly above you when you take the pictures. I have taken the process and modified it to only edit the nadir making it easier to position your logo.įirst off it helps to know what the nadir and zenith are The nadir is the bottom point of the sphere, this should be the place below your feet or tripod when you are taking the pictures. While the process described in the article from was easy to follow since it does not focus on either the nadir or zenith it is actually a little difficult to properly position your logo and you may end up with it just a little off-center. This is something I have been trying to figure out how to do for a while now and could not find an easy how to until I stumbled across Edit zenith and nadir in one go with PTGui from. Today I am going to show how you can add a logo to the nadir of a photosphere. This will be my first how-to post and hopefully not my last.
