Week after week, we state that “photography has the power of lightening up our daily lives,”; and what a wonderful way of kick-starting our frantic routines by diving into some beautiful images in the comfort of our seats! Panoramic photographs date back to the film era; historically, this type of imagery developed as a less-used format. Nowadays, with the wonders of digital technology, we can render reality in all its wideness. Here is a fine selection of panoramic shots shared by our community for the weekly photography challenge. Without further ado, prepare your screens for some nice panoramic shots!
Photo Of The Week – September 11th, 2023
What Are Our Members Up To?

A macro panoramic shot of some poppy-seed heads built with 5 images stitched in Lightroom.
An impressive view from 11 images stitched in Photoshop.
As you might have guessed by now, panoramic shots with people in them are even less common than regular pano images out there. 3 or 4 photos were stitched in Lightroom Classic to produce the final image here.
This challenge made me think, is there a technical difference between Lightroom and Photoshop for these types of images? Please, let us know in the comments below!
