  • Garden World

    When we were down the West Coast, I made a not-very-good 360 panorama of Aunty's back garden. Just for fun, I made it into a 'world'. You can just see Aunty sitting on her porch. I need to send her the link to the pano, but they may not have internet yet after some recent severe storms; some places still need generators The neighbour's shed (at 4 o'clock in this pic) blew down, and the distant trees (at 6 o'clock) have gone.



    I stitched the photos together with Microsoft ICE. I missed a bit of the garage, so had to clone that manually. To make the 360 pano I needed to clone more grass and sky, but they weren't needed here. To make this 'world' I used The Gimp's 'Polar Co-ordinates'. I had a few tries, and found that more sky and less grass worked best, to make the buildings stand out. I then cropped out much of the sky. I upped the hue, saturation and lightness, partly because it was a grey evening when I took the photos, and partly to give a somewhat hyper-real look.

        This one nearly skipped by me Rosemary. I have had the grandies for a school holiday visit,and it has been all go!
        I love this - what a great thought to do it. I have looked at it several times and see something different each time. I keep thinking of "The Wizard of Oz" and wondering where your Auntie might land!
        Terrific!

          Hi Lyn,
          Thanks for the comments. I had fun putting it together. I'm not sure what Aunty would make of it especially seeing herself on top of her little world!

            Love the concept and the final result it's a wonderful image that has the "feel good", factor nicely presented.

                Like it; although I felt as though I was on a merry-go-round; dizzy
