GALLERIA PANORAMAE
Our experience in creating panoramae is largely in the digital arena and as a consequence much of what follows is computer based after the camera has had its wicked way.
Some archival work how ever was shot on film and subsequently scanned. An example is Other Mate Pamelas beautiful work on The North Sydney Oval go to:

We do have friends who possess real panorama cameras as well as our digitalia and since we have become rather besotted with Panoramae over the last short months we have decided to put together a special interest group to follow it up. Even dreamed up a rather grand title, deciding to call ourselves The Panorama Society. We have a CEO , Special Counsel ( Legal ), Cullinaire, Archivist Librarian/ Egyptologist on board together with The Artful Dodger.
There is no cost to join, no members areas containing secrets beyond compare guarded by pass words, no , what we do such as it is, is open to all.
Our idea is to link up with an email ring. Anyone can post to the ring via Robaire and Wazza as moderators. As sadly in this World even animals might want a go at The Panorama Society.
We will hold special interest panorama conversazionales on occasion together with the requisite libation to The Great Gods on Mount Olympus, and email subject links and how it was dones to the ring. We will include tips on Audio Visuals and sound tracks to go with them.
This is not going to bounce fully grown from the screen, it is a sometime thing as we all have much to do in these trying times. One promise though is a heap of fun.
We have kick started The Panorama Society Galleria on Rusticana to showcase work from a how it was done viewpoint. https://pbase.com/galleria_rusticana/the_panorama_society. So you will be able to "look upon my works ye mighty and despair" as has been said before.

IMPORTANT: Please scroll down to the yellow tile. From there on you will see VBL panos. Select Original and scroll side to side.

Galleria Panoramae will continue to feature as a vehicle for Robaire, Wazza and Other Mates work and there is no doubt the VBL Project ( Very Bloody Large ) will provide its share of photographic humor. Panoramae will deal with the more Arty bits of the images so a prowl around both sites wont hurt.Enjoy
