\"Cathedral<\/a>
Cathedral ceiling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I got myself a late little Christmas present, a (not quite) cheap Korean 8mm lens<\/a>, and I’m seeing what I can do with 180\u00b0. The picture above of the full length of the Wichita cathedral’s ceiling is essentially a single frame. ((To be precise, It’s three exposures combined via Photoshop’s HDR function, but they’re stacked on top of each other, so to speak, rather than stitched side-by-side into a panorama. Each exposure contained the entire ceiling.)) The lens is manual focus, but that hardly matters: set the focus to two or three feet, and at f8 the depth of field contains the whole world.<\/p>\n

Using the new lens, I did successfully make a spherical panorama, without the tripod visible, with just seven exposures. It’s not really difficult, but it’s not quite as easy as Florian Knorn<\/a> would have you believe, at least with the freeware<\/a> I use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
