thanks everyone! It took about five hours
stitching (hooray for Photoshop Elements'
magic bandaid) and it was a lot of fun - the
students had no idea what it was I was asking
them to do... I guess most of them don't hang
out at Flickr :o)
It will be so fun to see their reaction to
the final product. Thanks for sharing my
fun with me! :o)

thanks bev and wendy. Yup, the students all
got an 8x10 to bring home with them, and
whether they 'appreciate' it or not I think
they will enjoy it.
It's the last two days of camp and the
students sent a delegation up to the nearest
Wal-Mart (an hour away) to buy CDs for the
group, so they could make sure that everyone
had copies of everyone else's digital photos
for the month.
Boy has life changed since I went to the
same camp 20 years ago... and regretted using
up two of my
"can-only-afford-three" rolls of
film on the first week's events!

Alright Kelly! It turned out beautifully!
After attempting it, I know all the effort
that went into that little beauty - you did a
super job with the seams and the wrap. Way
to go! I think these circular panos are best
with people in them and this one really
rocks.

thanks everyone! I'm still waiting for the
merit badge on it, I suspect it will be a
long wait... but everyone's kind words mean a
lot more than a badge! ...and I'm getting
ideas for tons of other circular panos too,
both with and without people, they are so
much fun... now all I need is time! :o)

i think you did a great job with this - its
one of the ones that inspired me to have a go
- infact i was going to try and recreate
something very similar - but couldnt get all
my mates together at one time. thanks for
your comments on my effort. I think the
spherized grass effect might look more
realistic if taken from abit 15 feet up -
unfortunately my hover skills arent all that.

Dear Weaving Major: What an absolutely cool
picture!! I have one request of you - I
would like to do this with some of our
students as well but I am very new to
photography and I would have no clue how to
do this. However, I assure you, if you would
be so kind as to tell me how to do my own
picture like this, I would be ever so
grateful to you. I will end up having a
small chapel building in there with them
somehow (to give the same effect as the big
lodge behind your kids. Does anyone know how
I can get this effect for my own photoshop
program!!?? I need ya'lls help - anyone
willing to give a few pointers to a girl who
would love to one day take pictures like
ya'll?
Thanks for the inspiration!! Angie Michaud

Has anyone tried to do this in Corel
Photo-Paint? I tried it but here again, I'm
not so confident I'm doing it right. If
anyone could help me, I would sure be
grateful!!

Hi angie, glad you like the picture!
there are tutorials for using photoshop in
the links in my original photo description.
I don't have corel photo-paint, but did a
google search and found a plug-in you can
download if you're using windows, here - it automatically does the polar transform.
(I can't find a plugin for mac, but there
might be one out there. my kids are
squabbling and I can't search any more) :o)
So follow the rest of the instructions in
the above links as best you can (make
panorama, match the ends, squash to a square)
and use the plug-in to turn your squashed
panorama into a circle. Hope that helps...
shoot me a flickrmail if you're still
confused - or maybe you'd get better help by
posting your question on a Corel group at
flickr? :o)

my goodness, thanks again everyone! And
thanks Gary and Rachel for the links, that
explains the now 17,000 views (?!) Yup,
Kap'n, "holy mackerel" from me too!
Gary, lots of folks have done polar panos but I'm honored to be
the first you saw. :o) It's a lot of fun!
Rachel, the best part of doing it with
people is that most of them had NO idea what
I was doing, they were just humoring some
kooky old mom (to them) as I made them get
in a circle and I got in the middle, kneeled
on the ground, and started taking pictures
all the way around. It was kinda fun to
have 70+ college students at my beck and
call, I'm glad the program director had
enough faith in me to let me try it - and it
was glorious to see their reaction to the
final product.

your legs in the shot?

( permalink

Ah, the magic of photoshop!
Actually my legs were never in the photo -
it was a panorama, and I patched grass into
the middle 'donut hole' after I converted it
to a polar projection.
