MoMA Panoramic Recognition: This date commemorates a key 20th-century exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art that officially recognized panoramic photography as a unique branch of fine art photography.

Todays Challenge: "The Gallery Triptych." Capture one very wide scene, but instead of one long image, present it as three separate vertical "panels" that the viewer's eye has to connect.

Pano Inspiration: This exhibition helped shift the perception of panoramas from being "technical novelties" to powerful tools for artistic storytelling.
