I have been taking close-up panoramas, that I call Nearscapes, in the conservatory which houses a collection of my wife’s houseplants. I have experimented by using 2 different lens: A cheap 10mm fish-eye lens and a moderate 27mm wide angle lens (equivalent to 42mm).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The panorama stitching software works with both but the fish-eye gives a greater depth of field whilst the 27mm is a sharper lens with less depth of field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below I show the resultant images with a ‘virtual tour’ using all 4 panoramas that allow you to zoom in and see the detail. But first the individual images:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These next two images were taken on the following day with different natural lighting, and a different position:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For interest, these next two photos show the set-up in taking the photos where I use my DIY panorama head to take the Nearscapes:<\/p>\n\n\n

And below is the interactive ‘Virtual Tour’ of the 4 panoramas: You can use the + and – buttons to zoom in and out, use the thumbnails to select a panorama to view, and drag the image from side to side.<\/p>\n\n\n
