Church of Christ the King – 6 Metres Above the Ground Panorama

By Panoramas 90-100, Pole Panorama


Taking images from above the ground adds a slightly different perspective to panoramas. Using a D80 with a 10.5mm lens the image to the right is a test shot taken 6 metres above the ground.

Within the scene are the three Grade II listed buildings the phoneboxes set against the backdrop of the Church of Christ the King in Bloomsbury.

The Red Phonebox is a classic design by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott who amoungest other notable buildings also designed Battersea Power Station. The K6 “Jubilee” model pictured here was built to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of King George V in 1935.

EveryScape – Better than Google Street View (?)

By EveryScape, Street View


Google Street View launched only a few weeks ago and now there is a new contender on the block in the shape of EveryScape. Using a different camera system Everyscape allows a full 360×180 field of view as well as the placement of those all important hotlinks (thus advertising revenue) in the scene.

The major selling point is however the transition between scenes, using some clever image precessing each scene is linked using a semi 3D zoom providing continuity to the navigation when compared against Street View.

The movie below provides a quick demo of the system.


Take a look at the EveryScape site to try it out yourself, still in beta stage they have Boston, New York and Seattle coming soon.

Thanks to Andy Hoskins for emailing us the site tip..
