| I like taking panorama photos, like this 360 degree shot. |

| But what do you do with them? They're awkward to print and you need to zoom and scroll through them to really appreciate the detail. |

| Sometimes they'll work as banner images, but they tend to be too long and skinny for things like Facebook cover photos. What do you do with your panorama shots? |
My granddaughter made a fabulous panorama of Seattle's city lights at night, stitching together numerous exposures made from a beach across Elliott Bay from the city.
ReplyDeleteIt makes a great print, 36"x6" but you have to have the right wall to hang it on.
I just like to enjoy them on the computer. But unless they are printed big - they really are only good for viewing digitally. I actually do not like to do 360 degree pans because they get too 'thin'. I like to make pans that do not look like pans but which allow you to do what you could not do unless it was a pan. For instance I once took pictures of bear tracks in the snow starting up close and then looking mid distance and finally into the far distance. If it had not been a pan I could not have gotten all three views in focus.

Once upon a time I thought it would be great to have a geodatabase linked to panoramic shots of archaeological landscapes. I don't know what to do with non-archaeological photos though!
ReplyDeleteI like to take panoramas too. Haven't done anything with them yet except enjoy them on a computer screen. I keep thinking that someday I will get some of them printed when I feel like spending some money. I recently saw that Canvas Lifestyle does canvas panorama prints.
