at the start i was like some of your friends, didn't like it. so i learn to do it in a "profesional" way which is: take a shot of the whole scene at 24mm, take the readings from the shot including the focusing point, input them in the camera, switch the camera to everything manual including the focusing (so the setting are even) and then with the lens at 70mm take series of shots in a certain order so i wouldn't have problem remembering when stitch them together.
later i've seen the work of david hockney and the way he did his "collages" and i have no problem if the edges of final image are not "evenly define" or the exposure is different from one image to other
The collage photo, not bad. The first thing that stands out is that the leftmost panel seems like a different color - a little browner than the others. So that stands out, which is not a good thing. I think I would prefer it if all the panels were processed similarly, if not the same. If making them all the same, your main tool would be a vignette. I wonder if you could play with focus/blur.
A single image - or the illusion of one — is better. The sharp differences draw attention to the form rather than the subject. Especially when it’s a mediation on a landscape.

I like the moody monochrome.
Hockney came to mind immediately too. I like the overlapping "collages" - especially in monochrome and with the uneven borders.
