Repeating the above steps 1-4 for this picture. But for step no.5 

5. Now, 'freeze' the camera. The object can now move and adjust to its final position.

The trick is this: Object cannot move from left to right immediately, Instead, go from behind the cameraman, to the other side.

6. When the object is fixed at its final position, move your camera along to the right side, press stop and the picture is done!

A few more photography tips!
-To keep the picture small (and not really a panorama), make sure you move a smaller distance.
-Practice makes perfect. You may need to repeat this a few times, to get it right. In no time, you'll be a pro.
-Keep your hands as stable as possible when moving along the panorama mode.
