Panorama Types Spatial Panoramas Panoramic image stitching based on image mosaicing has got an extensive interest with several commercial software packages produced. The process based on the basic geometry of the problem by estimating a 3 × 3 camera matrix or homography for each image. This estimation process requires an initial user input to approximately align the images or a fixed image overlaying. This yields a mosaicing panoramic view of spatial stitched images for certain location or scene in a specific time [6]. Panorama stitching system usually based on two main processes, image plane projection and image stitching. When two adjacent images are captured in different planes it is difficult to get a correlated part from both adjacent images to stitch them together unless one of the images has to be projected from its image plane to the image plane of the adjacent image [7]. 2.7.1.1 2-D Spatial…
Any image that has a greater view than the human eye or an aspect ratio of 2:1 is considered a panorama. Panoramic photography was born when the pioneer photographers started using daguerreotype plates put together to form wide-angled scenes. One of the first panoramic photographs was by Martin Behramanx in 1851 showing San Francisco from Rincon Hill. It is thought that the original panorama had 11 plates, but the originals no longer exist. Even thou it was developed 150 years ago people still…
trusted. The “Cinema of Attractions” did not gain its reputation from being ‘windows onto the world’ as photographs were seen, instead it become popular at fairgrounds, alongside conjurers and magicians, as a form of spectacle. At its heart; not reality. Even when watching what is seemingly a very naturalistic video, such as a nature documentary, there is a sense that what we are seeing is constructed, from the tightly controlled edit points to the sharply focused macro animal shots.

This is evident when viewing John Everett Millais’s Ophelia. Photography also impacted people’s everyday lives. According to Jonathan Crary, to understand the photography effect, “one must see it as a crucial component of a new cultural economy of value and exchange” (Techniques of the Observer). The introduction of photography initiated many fundamental changes in society that had a domino effect. For example, the invention and development of photography greatly impacted the methods through…
talking about the rhetorical aspect of images, people are usually unaware of the potential power that a photograph has to convince someone. However, images such as those of veterans meeting their relatives in tears use emotional appeal to convince their viewers so those viewers are far more likely to agree with the message behind the photo. What makes those images so powerful? And why does it matter that those images have such power? While photographs may seem harmless, it can be used to trick…
This image shows Mother Mary talking to her Mother St.Anne. I love this image because as an religious kid, this photograph demonstrates my love for my religion. The quality I like best about this photo is how I edited it. I loved the way I kept the background the same yet I lighten up Mary and St.Anne. The one and only thing I would do differently would be to experiment with the contrast and the brightness a little more or even try this photo in black and white. I had no trouble at all taking…
Richard Learoyd was born in England in 1966 and he is currently living and working in London. He’s method is camera Obscura. He creates life size images in he’s own built camera and makes unique images. Flamingo 3 is a really beautiful photograph, with a soft and strong view. The colors are so bright. The concept of the image, from my point of view, a flamingo caught from freedom. To be honest, at the beginning I didn’t see that the flamingo was dead, and until this day, I still choose to not…
The first aspect that can be analyzed is the framing of the picture. Looking at the picture it is clear that the camera was pointing down and the photographer was above me. This raises the question, “How did I get down to the waterfall?” The viewer may think I am standing off a pathway somewhere or may think I actually hiked into a remote area. The element of lighting and color is also important to analyze.The image photographed is bright implying that it was taken in the middle of the day. All…
significance for people to try and isolate some meaning out of the artistic features. Apparently, analyzing the images proves the only way to extract meaning from these pictures some of which become complex to understand. However, close view of the pictures allows a person to isolate its subtle…
ponder the artistic nature of the photo and make an attempt at understanding the person who took it. If the photo is of me or something I was a part of, then of course I would think of that moment and what happened around the time it was taken. That in itself is just a natural human reaction; there are times however, that I can see just any random photo and be reminded of an event in my personal past or even reminisce on an emotion I felt during a certain moment of my existence. This may be a…
