A Panoramic landscape is wide, with expansive views that will capture a large area of scenery in one image, often showcasing the beauty of nature.

Is a technique of photography, using specialized equipment or a type of software, that captures images with horizontally elongated fields of view.

Advantages

There is a wider angle of view, so you can more of the landscape.eg, foreground, background and the middle ground.

There is compositional freedom, which means as we can assemble the resulting panorama from as many frames as we like.

The quality of the panorama is much higher compared to the single shots from wide-angle lenses in particular, as we avoid all the aforementioned negatives of wide-angle lenses.

Disadvantages

There needs to be a high level of skill due to the difficultly of taking panoramas. The photographer should already be quite experienced, as they have to cover a wide range of activities.

 The image does not display the fine anatomic detail.

There are compositional limitations. Even though wide-angle lenses can cover a really wide area, they are still not without limit. We are then limited by what we can or cannot fit into the lens’ frame.

How To Create A Panoramic Landscape ?

To make a Panoramic Landscape you can either take a photo of the landscape with your camera that has a Panoramic mode or if your camera does not contain that mode then the traditional method would be to take pictures of your landscape but making sure you take it from all angles from left to right to top to bottom, making sure you leave enough room for the images to overlap. So you can create this effect.

Once you take all these pictures you can insert them into a program like Photoshop or Lightroom and there should be an option to Photo merge them into a Panoramic image. Then you just adjust the images and edit them to your preference and then you should have a Panoramic Landscape.

Image Analysis

There are different types of lighting due to over 700 images in this one photo, but I think it mostly natural outside lighting. You cant tell the aperture because there are many images combined.

‘Pear blossom Highway’ is showing a crossroad in a very wide open space, which you only get a sense of in the western United States. [The] picture was not just about a crossroads, but about us driving around. I’d had three days of driving and being the passenger. The driver and the passenger see the road in different ways.

When you drive you read all the road signs, to check where you are driving. When you’re the passenger, you don’t, you can decide to look where you want.

The littered cans and bottles and the meandering line where the pavement ends and the sand begins point to the interruption of the desert landscape by the roads cutting through it and the imprint of careless travellers
