The "Pale Blue Dot" Panorama: In 1990, Voyager 1 took a "Family Portrait" of the solar system, a panoramic sequence that captured Earth as a tiny speck within a vast, dark wide-format frame.

Todays Challenge: "The Tiny Subject." Capture a wide-angle panorama of a large space (like a park or stadium) but keep your main subject very small in the frame to show its relationship to the void.

Pano Inspiration: This image is technically a "mosaic panorama," made of 60 individual frames stitched together by NASA scientists.
