360° Panoramic photos

Have you everwish that you can take your own 360° panoramic without any sophisticate camera? I did, and now I found my answer, thanks to Lomography Spinner 360°, now I could make my own 360° panoramic picture in my own style.

To see more pictures I took with Spinner 360°, go to my flickr.


Spinner 360° is actually a very simple camera that using 35mm film. You hold the camera with one hand, pull the cord and release it. In less then 2 seconds, the camera will turn around on its axis, on its own, and get you the 360° detail surround you. The result will be about 4x longer than the normal panoramic picture on the 35mm film.

Next time, I will try to make a video cast to show you how it really works.

Fafleralp and EF 28mm f1.8

It was a beautiful summer day, bright sunshine without a trace of breeze that we usually had. So we've decided to do the nature hike at the "wild side" of Valais. It took us about 2 hours drive to arrive at Lötschental area, and we continue a little bit more to arrive at the end of the valley.

The Lötschental valley is sorrounded by 3000 meter high mountains, and is the most glaciated area in the Swiss alps.

While we ventured around the trail, we met some cows who went down from the mountain. I tried to take some close-up personal picture, but since I just roaming around with my EF 28mm f1.8 on my Canon EOS 5D mark II, then I really had to be extremely close with them.

I found the EF 28mm f1.8 could be put in the category of "if I could only could live with one" lens. I serves well for the panoramic picture, and as for close-up picture, it doesn't distort the picture since it isn't too "wide" angle. I took this lens with me when I went to North Cape during the polar night last winter. The f1.8 helped a lot when I had to take some panoramic picture in the extreme low-light condition (works better than my EF 24-70mm f2.8 USM L)
