Take Perfect Group Photos

You can take perfect group photos with your digital camera and this software.

Sometimes, photographers forget that they're using a digital camera. That's why they usually take ONE photo of a group, and then go and take a photo of another group.

Tip: Take 5 to 7 photos of the SAME group. Afterall, digital "film" is inexpensive.

If you look at those 5 to 7 pictures, you'll notice that some people are smiling, others have their eyes closed, or others are looking in the wrong direction.

It would be great if we could combine the best of those different photos, and then combine them into one PERFECT group photo, right? Well, that's where the Microsoft Research Group Shot program comes in.

It allows you to choose similarly shaped regions (or faces) from different photos, and combine them into one picture. In the end, you'll have a group photo where everyone is smiling nicely (with their eyes fully open).
