A panorama image is a natural step on the journey of capturing ever wider fields of view. While the normal "rules" of guiding viewers eyes from overview to focus still apply, many focus points predominate a large panorama and present new challenges for the photographer. A great panorama excels by presenting the viewer with sweeping scenery otherwise only observable on location.



This book grew out of my desire to catalog the panoramas that I have captured over the years. There are also a few panoramas included that have been taken by either my Mike or John while on some absolutely fabulous backpacking trips. I performed the stitching and post processing for these as well.
