Characteristic of Panoramic Photography
- The observer (photographer) must stand in the center of the scene rather than standing a position outside of the spot.
- The observer creates an inner relation between the surrounding and himself/ herself based on the subjective choice of spot.
- The way to picture the panoramic space is from inside to outside in which the outline of space is constituted by the inner structure with different perspectives.
- The form of panoramic image is processed by the logic of geometry.
- The production of panoramic photography is from a part to the whole, whereas the presentation of panoramic image is from the whole to a part.
- The panoramic photography doesn’t provide a proper way to read the images; therefore people can construct / re-construct or arrange / re-arrange the sequence of images based on their sensation to the space.
- The panoramic image includes two parts: The representational part are landscape, architecture and people; The abstract part are geometry, symbol and composition
- The 360 x 180 panoramic picture is generated through vertical axis and horizontal axis to present an overall perspective.
- The panorama is defined as array of information collected and constantly change by the viewers.
- The panoramic photography transfers the sphere of space into multi-dimensional flat surfaces.
- The approach to panoramic photography is a process of folding and unfolding.
- The equirectangular projection is the output of unfolding panoramic picture like a world map. It could be regarded as an iconic symbol for the space, but also a scenography in geographic perspective.
- In an equirectangular panoramic image all verticals remain vertical, and the horizon becomes a straight line across the middle of the image.
