Image capture and ordering

A method for panorama stitching, comprising:

• receiving, by a computing device, a new image;
• storing, by the computing device, the new image in a first region of an image stack according to a first ordering preference, the image stack storing one or more existing images and each existing image is stored according to the first ordering preference or a different second ordering preference, wherein a first portion of the existing images is stored in the first region of the image stack and a second portion of the existing images is stored in a different second region of the image stack;
• and
• generating a panorama image including the first and second sets of images by stitching the new image and the one or more existing images together according to a first stitching priority associated with the first region and a different second stitching priority associated with the second region.

A system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more storage devices operably connected to the one or more processors for storing instructions, that when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• store a first plurality of images in an image stack according to a first ordering preference, the first ordering preference associated with a first region of the image stack;
• store a second plurality of images in the image stack according to a different second ordering preference, the second ordering preference associated with a second region of the image stack;
• and
• generate a panorama image including the first and the second plurality of images by stitching the first and the second plurality of images together according to stitching priorities associated with the first and the second regions, wherein the first stitching priority is higher than the second stitching priority and each image associated with the first region of the image stack is stitched before each image associated with the second region of the image stack.
