Editing out the nadir or tripod in a 360-degree panorama

This tutorial will show you how to easily edit out the tripod or nadir in a 360-degree spherical panorama using Adobe Photoshop and free tools to work with panoramas. 360-degree equirectangular panoramas in the 2:1 aspect ratios are not easy to edit. But with some free Photoshop actions, the process is super easy. Follow along to see how I do it with this spherical panorama shot with my Samsung Gear 360!

Great tutorial. Never thought of cloning that way. cloning after converting gives a neater finish. ofcourse, I do it in Gimp as I don't have Photoshop. Thanks for sharing.

Good tip but with a real tripod the foot print is huge and the work is not so easy...
