Yesterday I published an article titled “Vertigo in pictures!” It highlighted a few photographs (and linked to a site with many others) showing the view downward from some very tall buildings.
Here’s an opposite perspective: what some call ‘vertical panoramas’. They show a low-to-high perspective on buildings and scenery, usually taking several photographs and ‘stitching’ them together to form a single image. Twisted Sifter looked at this art form recently. Here are a couple of examples from their article, reduced in size to fit this blog.
There are more at the link.
Also of interest is a Flickr photography group calling itself ‘Vertical Panoramic‘. Its members have posted hundreds of photographs in this genre. Here’s just one example: it’s titled ‘Torres‘ (Towers), and depicts two skyscrapers in Madrid, Spain.
There are many more images at the group’s Flickr page.
Fascinating stuff! I hope you enjoy this sort of creativity as much as I do.
