The project I am working on has 3,172 images of a little city on the edge of a big lake. Of course lots of docks and large bay. Water is a pretty much impossible to map. It is just a bunch of moving waves, and featureless. It ends up having funny stripes and harsh transitions. To make the client happy, we (I) have to go in with Photoshop and just blend the funny spots in the water away. There is simply nothing to see, it is just water. Just tedious work. The pain part is the image that the mapping program produced from the 3172 images is a single 10 gigabyte tif file. Of course for the reasons only Adobe can think up, Photoshop simply will not save a 10 gig tiff file. It is happy to open it and let me edit it, but I am sure I don't want the client to have to come look at it only here. So I have to cut it up, edit the pieces, and then put it back together. Dang Adobe. (Insert very long string of profanity here)
