Behind The Lens

Location

I shot this panorama at the Fox Theatre in Visalia, CA

Time

It was taken at Sunset during mid-Christmas season

Lighting

I wanted the lights of the Theatre, as well as the stadium lights from the Mineral King to be turned on in the panorama so I had to wait until I saw the lights were on, while hoping it wouldn't be too long after civil twilight so I could fly the drone before total dark.

Equipment

Shot with DJI Phantom 4 Pro

Inspiration

I love watching sunsets and the Fox Theatre is an iconic landmark in Visalia, and many other cities. I wanted to capture the mood that everybody feels while touring downtown regions of cities.

Editing

Post-processing involved stitching the panorama together from my drone images twice, once to spot edit and boost shadows, then again to transform the panorama into the Tiny Planet.

In my camera bag

DJI Phantom 4 Pro Ricoh Theta V & Z1 Sony a77 w/ Sony 18mm/3.5 Rokinon 8mm/3.5 Tamron 100-300mm/3.5

Feedback

Be patient, shoot multiple panoramas, and analyze your panorama carefully to ensure there's no funky stitching in the image that will be too noticeable when publishing.
