The Panorama of Paris (1889): For the World’s Fair, a massive panoramic painting of the city was created, featuring the newly built Eiffel Tower as the central "anchor" of the 360-degree view.

Todays Challenge: "The Anchor Point." Capture a wide panorama that has one very tall, central object (like a tower, a tall tree, or a pole) to act as an anchor for the rest of the landscape.

Pano Inspiration: This panorama was so popular that people would wait for hours just to spend 10 minutes standing "inside" the painted city of Paris.

Unusual Perspectives

In panography, changing your perspective; the angle, height, and position of the camera significantly impact the final composition. By breaking away from the typical eye-level perspective, you can add depth, emotion, and visual interest to your panoramas.
