I am trying to figure out the best way to put some photos into one.. I have seen it done, but these photos, I would like to make into one time lapse photo.. I am not even sure if I am using the right photography terminology here..



I still have to do some more editing for these photos still...straight from the camera with just my watermark on them for when I downloaded it, and put it on so they could Facebook it, I plan on removing them for the combined photos

It is for my nephews teammate who did not have a camera and she wanted shots of her son pitching, of course I obliged but
Kinda wanted to put something really cool together for her for the fun of it. This was the first time I have ever shot any sports pictures at all. I even used the S mode for the first time ever too! LOL ..I think it was the right one I needed anyway.. so having these somewhat come out I was really happy with.. oh, these were behind the fences.. I was not inside the fence shooting these.. I think I am learning a few things :0))

Been trying to find the right tutorial but its not the ones I need..
Lightroom 4 or PS2

If your looking to something like this



You would have wanted to shoot the sequence on a tripod or monopod so the framing is consistent from shot to shot. It may be able to be done still but it will be more difficult.

Start with overlaying the images on each other and getting them sized all the same. You then mask out everything but the player in each subsequent image.

aaa that is what I did wrong then!

Thanks Mark, I will have to re-try that at his next game, looks like masking it is ! LOL

Appreciate the feedback

One other thing to pay attention to is your BG...in the other combined photo...the BG is much easier to "blend/mask" away...but the pictures above would be much harder. So plan out WHERE you are going to get your shots from and try to get the best angle so your BG doesn't change all that much it will make that much easier to do.

See, I didn't think of that either.. These were different pitching shots, but I took my favorite from each different pitching he did..
Prob should have done just those burst shooting shots in one setting instead of picking and choosing my favorite photos from each one
