Foto Friday – Extreme Panoramics

I love panoramic pictures. I’ve been in some incredible places in my life and want to try to capture the grandeur of a place.

Or to try and capture a once in a lifetime event like this 50th wedding anniversary party. And panos can do that.

However…

I want to be like these photographers! Check out these ultra panoramics done using Apple’s Quicktime Virtual Reality (QTVR)

HEY!  Don’t forget THIS one…

Stan took the pics, and I assembled the pano – this is the view from the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga, Tennessee!

I used it in this layout:

EDITED 9/6/08 – Panos seem to confuse a lot of scrappers but they are easy to do. We wrote a tutorial to help you out. Click here to see it!

    just curious, how did you assemble the panos, thx

    Vicky,

    They probably used software to stitch several individual shots together.

    I have a wide angle lens that would do this, but I haven’t had much of a chance to use it. I also have stitching software, but haven’t had a chance to really use it either.

    All this would be great for things like the Grand Canyon or Niagara Falls.

    Thanks Stan & Jenn.

    Vicky,

    We use Photoshop CS2/CS3 to assemble our panos. The Photo Merge feature is great in either of these (CS3 has some new features added to it). And funny you should ask – Jenn and I are just finishing up a tutorial on how to do panos! I just edited this post with a link to the tutorial – scroll back up and click it.
