overlapping edges into a single panoramic picture, using the OLYMPUS

The part of the previous picture where it will be joined to the next picture does not
remain in the frame on the edge of the screen. You have to remember what the
part in the frame looked like and take the next picture so it overlaps. Compose your
shots so that the right edge of the previous picture overlaps the left edge of the next
picture if you are connecting pictures from left to right (or vice versa if you are
connecting pictures from right to left).
