  There was a small peek at some of the things that go on inside the bubble the other day, and I thought it might be nice to give a broader view of what RB Central really looks like. This is a panorama composed from 6 individual images showing the heart of operations (well, other than the pub that is). Things have changed a little since this was taken (24th August), so with a little more re-decoration it may be worth posting an updated view. Some of you will notice some fresh bright coloured shirts attached to the wall awaiting a photo shoot, and also covering up the door through to where we keep the zoo. - John / /

  These are phenomenal! Not only can you scan left to right, but up and down as well, and if you have a scroll button on your mouse you can zoom in and out! I can’t imagine the work that went into creating something like this!

• Meeeeeeega-panorama, Sydney Harbour Bridge Pylon Lookout, NYE 2007

  This journal entry is really an image, and there are a couple of reasons for this. One is that the image is so massively big that uploading it as art here wouldn’t do it justice, and secondly, the image when viewed up close is a little rough, not the stuff of portfolios. Nonetheless it is certainly an interesting image that I’d like to share… On New Years Eve, around 3 in the afternoon, I paid the measly sum of $10 to ascend the Sydney Harbour Bridge Pylon lookout, and while not as fun as the BridgeClimb, you can take your camera up this one and it represents great value for money. While I has up there, I shot a handheld (!) panorama consisting of over 350 images. You can see the result by clicking on the thumbnail below… / There are a few badly stitched bits (missing top of bridge, city buldings crooked), but it was hard enough work as it was :) The interface on the site is designed to let you explore the image, so pan around and zoom, zoom, zoom!

  Selecting a Source Photo for Your Planet When selecting a photo to start with you should keep the following things in mind: Panoramas or landscapes cropped to have an aspect ratio at least 2:1 (the width should be at least two times the height) work best. Wider photos are better. The bottom area (bottom 25% or so) of your photo should have very little detail (e.g. sand, asphalt, water). This area will become the center of your planet and will be distorted the most. The upper area (upper 25%) of your photo should also be light on detail– preferably just one color (e.g. blue sky, night sky etc.) The left and the right edges of your photo should match, or come close to matching, each other. (Always the case for a stitched 360 degree panorama.) The horizon must be exactly horizontal. Since the left and right edges of your photo will be joined, if they are at different heights your planet will have a big crack in the surface. (Again, a non-issue for a properly executed 360 degree panorama.) We’re going to go through two examples: the first uses a simple panorama, the second a landscape shot that we’ll crop before proceeding. / Starting Simple: Planet San Francisco It’s simplest to work with a 360 degree panorama, so let’s start with this panorama shot of San Francisco taken from the Coit Tower: Step 1: Resize and Rotate screenshot1_thumb.jpgThe first thing we need to do is prepare the image for the Polar filter. We do this by stretching the height of the image so that the image is a perfect square. Select Image>Image Size from the menus. Uncheck ‘Constrain Proporties’ and set the “height” to the same value as your “width”. Next, rotate the image 180 degrees. (Image>Rotate Canvas>180) You should end up with something like the image to the right. / Step 2: Apply the Polar Filter Next, we’ll apply the Polar Filter to wrap our image into a sphere. Choose Filter > Distort > Polar Coordinates from the menus and in the resulting dialog box, select the “Rectangular to Polar” setting. (If you’re using The Gimp the command is Filters > Distorts > Polar Coords.) As you can see we’re 90% of the way there!: Planet San Francisco, almost complete! Easy cheesy, right? Now for some finishing touches… / Step 3: Rotate and clean up The rest is just a little digital darkroom work: Rotate the planet to your liking, adjust the contrast and colors, clean up the sky and the edges where the left and right border of the image came together. (The clone stamp and healing brush may be handy here.) That’s it, we’re done!

  Hi Everyone, this weekend (7-9th March 2008) was a hell of a weekend for me. Once again, I had media access and track access to photograph an International event which was being held at Bathurst, New South Wales on Mt. Panorama (home of the V8 race cars). The event was called the Newton’s Gravity Games which featured a number of events being run from the top of the Mountian (Skyline) right to Conrod Straight. The events included, Street Luge, Gravity Bikes, Speedboards, Hybrid Slalom, Giant Slalom, Freestyle Sliding, Buttboards, Downhill Inline, Carveboards and more. These guys and one girl (From Canada) travelled on their toys from about 50kph to 140kph on the street luge. I spent most of Saturday around Forest Elbow which is hard enough for the race cars to handle so just imagine taking the hair pin corner at 80 to 110kph on a luge or a buttboard and then coming unstuck and slamming into the hay bails…. Ouch, ouch and more ouch. I witnessed 2 broken legs, 4 broken arms, 1 broken wrist and I can’t even remember how many concussions and guys being knocked out for minutes which looked like they died. Anyway, I’ll be posting a number of crashes and a number of smooth well controlled photos very soon. The weekend was jam packed of extreme sports. I can’t wait for next year….....

  Hi All, 352 members, 1125 images A great achievement thank you. I have requested that our thumbnail be displayed at 3:1 ratio to let the public appreciate the work in the group, I hope this will happen one day. I have put the feature page section on the Panorama group, which I change from week to week, I hope that the group might get a showing on the Art – Featured – Section one day in the near future. Happy stitching everyone and keep up the great work. David

• At least 250 megapixels worth of negative.

  A couple of days ago I made a bold statement in regard to the negatives of some of my images. I’ve posted some photo’s taken with a handmade camera that uses over sized 120 film. There is a small detail in the sky that is actually a helicopter towing a huge flag. Because the negative is so large and so fine, I have boldly stated that it is the equivelent of around 250 to 300 megapixels. And because the negative is so big and the film used was so fine this image and its companions will enlagre up to huge mural size prints with no loss of quality. So what do people think of this bold assertion? How do others rate their negatives in terms of megapixels? I manage a small analouge darkroom at a regional university and tell the students that a 35mm analouge neg is the equivelent to about 90 meg and a standard 120 or medium format negative is equivelent to about 200 meg. What do others think? Here is the link to my Redfern Panorama And here is a thumbnail of the little cameras that took these photos.

  I call it a break, but it wasn’t one made as a choice, or was it? I can’t really answer that. In the last 9 months I’ve pretty much ceased shooting almost completely because of some very important events in my life, firstly and most importantly starting with getting engaged and married, turning 30, moving in to our first home and getting a promo at work – and I can tell, I’m suffering the ‘lack-of-shooting’ symptoms; Talking about, and looking at photography a lot of the time, studying weather charts, charging my camera batteries, cold-sweats, shakey hands, rocking back and forth in my chair making shutter sounds with my mouth. Thankfully, a couple of recent phone calls have giving me the fuel to get going again; an end of year exhibition invite and some commission work from an old client. Hopefully in the next few weeks I’ll have some images to show you and I’ll spend a bit more time in here with you peepz. Take Care Out There

• How to view my Panoramas :D

  Hi all :) Sorry I have been so quiet. Been very busy with work and with doing stuff around my houses to make sure they are ready for selling. I had three bites in a week, but all have pulled out now sadly, so it’s back to square one for me at the moment. For those that are interested in viewing my Panorama’s much more closer and in greater detail, I have started to upload them to a Panorama site. At the moment I only have the two there, but will be adding all of them (and adding the links within the description of each photo) as I get to them. If anyone wants to see one of my Pano’s sooner rather than later … send me a BubbleMail and I will make sure I upload those photos asap :) :) At the moment you can view these two photos in much greater detail :) :) Have a look and let me know what you think :) The Big Sleep Baandee Lakes and Old Ruin

  Yesterday a group of photography-friends went South in search of locations to capture on binary-film. I shot a myriad of interesting shots, yet only a few I consider worthy of inclusion on Redbubble. Displayed below are my photographs of the rustic remains of the historic boat-sheds at Second Valley. , ,

  Just want to know whether you guys add in any watermark (signature, name), on file images that are up for sale? Also whether you create any canvas on the image, or having them through on full size with no canvas at all? I’m interested to know, as my previous works that i’ve edited, I added the canvas in CS. When I upload in RB, I’ve reworked some of my image (not all; probably only 1 to date), to exclude the canvas as well as watermark (signature/name, and copyright logo). Hmmm … does RB provide any panoramic size printing? Has anyone sell/buy this format before? Thanks. Regards, / Sidqie

  I uploaded the first really big panorama that I took back in March 2006 to gigapan.org. It only weighs in at 0.2 gigapixels, which is small compared to some others on the site, but is still good for a jolly ol’ armchair exploring session (cheaper than another airline ticket, at least). Check it out />http://gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=604 and see what you can find! I’m wondering what the maximum advised pixel size is for uploading such an image for a large print on redbubble, keeping in mind the 20Mb maximum file size and 24 inch longest edge . At 300dpi, a 24 inch wide panorama would require 7200 pixels across, less than 1/3 the size of the original. :)

  Thanks for your wonderful comments. I have only been on Redbubble for less than two weeks. The reaction to my “By Request” photo has been fantastic. I have decided to make a series of four photos that I took on the same scene. The other photos are “Luna Over Luna Park”, “Luna Harbour”, and “Luna PANORAMA”. The photos were taken in quite quick succession. One photo is in Portrait, two are in Landscape, and one PANORAMA. It’s amazing how a similar subject can be photographed in slightly different ways, and produce different results. I will interested in knowing which of the four is you favourite ! Ciao / Gino

  Had a trip out to the Lake District yesterday and it gave me the perfect opportunity to experiment at making a few panoramas. I managed to get three in total. They were stitched together perfectly by CS3 and required only a little adjusting. If you have the time pop over and comment. Be honest…....

  I returned to active photography today after a 3 month break, despite what I said in my last journal entry. I am working on a new mini-series to be exhibited at the end of the year and I’ve decided to try something that I don’t normally do, which is black and white photography. As you will see in my gallery, I have added a new piece today titled ‘Winter Skies’ which was wonderful to start with. I can’t wait to get out and shoot some more in the coming weeks.

  As well as experimenting with some different effects using photoshop, i have also, finally, placed together some of the panorama photos i took while travelling at the start of the year, this brings my portfolio up to 3 panoramas of mountains that ive skiid on (TC in NZ is the other one, check it!). The recent panoramas are Big Mountain, near Whitefish in Montana, USA and also the ski resort; Kicking Horse, just outside the town of Golden in British Colombia, Canada. Both were fantastic days of skiing that i will never forget, and i will definately be back there one day. / I also have some more B&W photos on the way, but still a few days off. Stay tuned. thanks again -Bart
